Our international shipping service includes the removal of the remains from the place of death, whether it be a hospital, coroner’s office, medical examiner facility, nursing home, private residence, convalescent care facility, or hospice (please click here for guidance on what to do when death occurs). The remains will be securely stored in our licensed morgue facility until embalming can be performed, ensuring the necessary preparations for international transportation.

We will file the death certificate and disposition permit with the local health department. Our service also includes the preparation of consulate paperwork, and facilitating the necessary documentation for international shipment. Finally, we will arrange for the delivery of the remains to the airport.

Please note that expenses such as airfare, consulate fees, and shipping tray or casket are not included in our international shipping service.
