Although there is variation across jurisdictions in what constitutes a death that is reportable to a coroner, they are generally reported in circumstances such as:
- where the person died unexpectedly and the cause of death is unknown
- where the person died in a violent or unnatural manner
- where the person died during or as a result of an anaesthetic
- where the person was 'held in care' or in custody immediately before they died
- where the identity of the person who has died is unknown.
