How To Reduce The Challenges That Come With International Funeral

By Enid Hinton


It is one of the most tragic things to happen to a family when a loved one dies while they are in a foreign country. Organizing an international funeral is time consuming and costly because of the different countries regulations that are involved. Returning the body home for burial can also be very difficult. It will require help for someone to do this.

It is good to remember that there can never be an alternative such as having the funeral take place in the country that one lost their life in. The family will always be interested in keeping the memory of their loved one. It is also good to know that a certain country may not just allow that to be effected.

For all those cases, there will always be some need for repatriation. If there are people who have good knowledge on the correct procedures within the family, it is better. When, however, one considers that there are many nations that may be strict about this, or have too comprehensive regulations, it will be good to have a third party do it. Otherwise, the procedures will always be the same.

Another issue to be considered is whether or not the loved one had life insurance and how to access the benefits to the beneficiaries. It will be very time consuming for family members to pursue this without help. There have been many cases with insurance benefits involved that have proven to be very costly to the beneficiary. Still, it is very important to choose the repatriating company wisely.

It is essential to ensure that you have all the necessary documents and permits that are needed. Also, paying attention to the details of the laws of that country or state is crucial as this will enable the family to be prepared and meet any time constraints that they may have. Delays are inevitable. When a document is misplaced you may find yourself starting the process all over again as you are deemed to be non-compliant. This may also result in other issues.

It is said that the world is a global village, however, it may be perceived to be related only to what happens online. When physical movement, such as relocation is involved, it may be best for the family of the deceased to engage the most cost effective means of transportation. They should bear in mind that tangible assets may also be involved. The overall objective is to have the entire matter dealt with within a reasonable budget.

In seeking guidance for the processes and procedures to go through you should contact the respective consulate to make sure the correct protocol is followed. There may be online companies that offer repatriation services, however, it is important that you get the correct information that you need and do not rely completely on them.

The difference in international culture and politics too may be another challenge. Respecting the religion and practices of the people is advised. But one may not know how to do this. If need be, all the requirements should be met. Just to be safe, get multilingual firms to repatriate. It is better to work with them when dealing with non-English speaking nations.
