At least in my country, from what I know, we don't. Ofc if someone is a patient somewhere and dies they most likely have their weight on file.

I tried to do this once and found that they do not record weight at death. The national census data does not list it, at least. I think the closest I came was finding average weights per age group. From that, you can see the amusing trend of average weight dropping with increased age, but it is nowhere near as interesting as actual weight at death data would be. I could make some fantastic graphs if I had that information.

No... We're just going to drain the body and take things out anyway... So not at the morticians office, but perhaps an autopsy report?

It would not be listed on a death certificate, at least not one I have ever seen, but it would be on autopsy or death investigation reports.

Sorry, but looking at weight at death is what causes the "obesity paradox". Here is an excruciatingly detailed comment of mine describing a study debunking the "obesity paradox".
