What does it mean to be repatriated?

If a death occurs in another country, repatriation is the process of transporting the deceased back to their home country. Many British nationals who die in the United Kingdom express a wish to be buried or cremated at home. Our funeral directors can organize repatriation of your loved one's remains from the UK, if desired.

How do you repatriate to or from the UK?

If a UK resident or non-UK resident abroad plans to repatriate to the UK, he or she should register the death with the local authorities in the country where the person passed away. Find your nearest British embassy for consultation.
