How it works

Most families never do this before. Here is the path, so nothing comes as a surprise.

  1. You call us

    Tell us where your loved one is and where they need to go. We explain what happens next and what we need from you.

  2. We gather and file the paperwork

    You send what you have. We chase the rest from the hospital, police, consulate and airline.

  3. Preparation

    Embalming and packing are done at a licensed facility, with a sealed casket and transit case.

  4. The flight

    We confirm the booking and send the air waybill and arrival time to you and the receiving funeral home.

  5. Arrival and handover

    We clear customs and hand your loved one to the funeral director or family, then confirm with you.

Questions families ask

Something missing? Call us and ask. There are no silly questions here.

How quickly can you start?

As soon as you call. We can begin the paperwork once we know where your loved one is and where they need to go.

How long does repatriation take?

It depends on the countries involved, the cause of death and flight availability. It often takes several days and sometimes longer. You get a realistic estimate on the first call, and we tell you straight away if it changes.

What documents will I need?

Usually a passport or ID, the death certificate and a letter of authority from the next of kin. Some countries also ask for a police report or consular permit. We tell you exactly which ones apply.

How much does it cost?

Cost depends on distance, weight and the preparation the destination requires. We send a written quote before we begin. Many insurance policies, employers and embassies contribute, and we can help with those claims.

Can you follow our religious requirements?

Yes. Tell us your tradition and we plan the timing, preparation and handover around it.

Do I have to travel?

No. You can handle everything by phone and message. If you speak another language, tell us on the call and we will bring in an interpreter.

Tell us where to start

Leave a few details and a case coordinator will call you back. Your name and phone number are enough.
