[[Findmypast]] (pay to search) has what appear at least some RG 32-36 images and indexes, (it is unclear whether these are a selection, or a complete series) and (previously was thought to be the '''contain indexes''' from RG 43, but this may be incorrect) including indexes for Consular Returns which are Statutory Returns, together with other indexes in respect of military overseas BMD. The findmypast datasets are now incorporated into datasets called British Armed Forces and Overseas Births and Baptisms, Marriages, Deaths (3 datasets).<ref>[https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-Records/british-armed-forces-and-overseas-births-and-baptisms British Armed Forces and Overseas Births and Baptisms]; [https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-Records/british-armed-forces-and-overseas-banns-and-marriages British Armed Forces and Overseas Banns and Marriages]; [https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-Records/british-armed-forces-and-overseas-deaths-and-burials British Armed Forces and Overseas Deaths and Burials] Findmypast.</ref> (Previously there were two separate series titled British Nationals Born Overseas, Married Overseas, Died Overseas), (3 datasets), and British Nationals Armed Forces Births, Marriages, Deaths, (3 datasets), change introduced 2018/01). There is also a fourth dataset "British Armed Forces and Overseas Browse" <ref>[https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-Records/british-armed-forces-and-overseas-browse British Armed Forces and Overseas Browse] Findmypast.</ref> where some, but not all record sets may be browsed. There are a number of ways to browse, including by country.

*View RG 32, RG 33, RG 34, RG 35 and RG 36 records online at Findmypast or Ancestry or BMD Registers which are both pay sites. (You may search for free for these records). The images may then be saved to your computer and/or printed.

If you find an index reference for a Consular Return record, either on FamilyRelatives.com, or [[findmypastFindmypast]]where there is no image, or FamilyRelatives.com, to obtain a copy of the record, it it suggested, if you have convenient Ancestry access, you first check to see whether there is a record in the Ancestry database "UK, Registers of Births, Marriages and Deaths From British Consulates, 1810-1968, as these appear to be records from the same source, refer next section, and if not, you should request a copy online from the GRO (see below).

*There are some records in the military series WO 156 "War Office: UK and overseas garrisons: Registers of Baptisms, Confirmations, Deaths/Burials, and Marriage".

**Index records (with the possibility that some records may include an image) from some of the National Archives series WO 156 are available in the '''[[findmypastFindmypast]] datasets described above'''.
