Need to know the state being asked about. It varies by statute from state-to-state.
Florida is a long peninsula that borders the Gulf of Mexico to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east.
In most states, a doctor or doctor's practitioner assistant or certified nurse practitioner has 72 hours after receiving the certificate of death to sign it and get back to the funeral service practitioner so it can go to state registrar.

Copies of death certificates in Florida are obtained from the Department of Health. Copies are limited to certain relatives or representatives and you will need the full name, sex, date of death and city or county of death. You can contact the State Health Department or the County Health Department where the death occurred. Using the free website below you can obtain either contact information or a direct link to your specific County Health Department. From the main page of "Free Public Records Directory - Florida - Vital Statistics" you can scroll down to the appropriate County and click on "Vital Records" to obtain the desired information.
It depends on the local law. Each country/state have its own rules. A death certificate is usually available within a few days even if the cause is still being determined. Under the cause of death section of the death certificate, officials will usually put "Pending" or "Under Investigation". This allows a funeral to take place without an extended waiting period . When the cause of death is eventually determined, such as through toxicology and or microscopic study of the organs, an amendment to the death certificate is filed showing the cause of death.
