I just sent a letter with my name and date of birth to the local church authority headquarters where i was baptised. i didn’t even know the date of this baptism, as child.
I briefly explained that since years I don’t follow what they preach, don’t attend anything, and the world is full of valuable sensible information, the church message being very empty in comparison. So there was no more point that they count me as a follower and they should remove me from their registers.
Few weeks later they replied with an extract of baptism certificate and a mention "has given up his faith on [date]". That was all. So it worked!
Be careful, some people had trouble because they asked to be un-baptised, and it’s no really feasible. It’s definitely easier to just declare "give up that faith" without metioning jesus, the bible, nor baptism.
Good luck, and remain friendly when you write, whatever your true opinion is!
