Singapore Funeral Committee provides professional body repatriation services in Singapore for families who need to transport a deceased person from Singapore to another country.

Repatriation requirements vary depending on the destination country, circumstances of the case and airline requirements. Our team will guide the family through each stage and coordinate with the relevant parties where required.

What Is Body Repatriation?

Body repatriation is the process of transporting a deceased person from one country to another for their funeral, burial or other final arrangements. For a death occurring in Singapore, this can involve preparation of the deceased, documentation, permits, coffin preparation, embassy coordination and air-freight arrangements.

Our funeral director acts as a point of contact for the family and helps coordinate the necessary repatriation arrangements in Singapore.

Our Repatriation Process

Every repatriation case is different, but the process may include:

• Collection and transportation of the deceased
• Identification of the destination country and receiving party
• Professional embalming and preparation where required
• Preparation of the appropriate coffin for international transportation
• Arrangement of required documentation and permits
• Embassy or High Commission coordination where applicable
• Coffin sealing and preparation where required
• Airline and air-freight coordination
• Transportation to the airport or cargo terminal
• Coordination with the receiving family or funeral service provider overseas

Documents Required for Repatriation From Singapore

The documents required for international repatriation depend on the destination country and circumstances of the case. Requirements may include death-related documents, identification documents, embalming or sealing documentation, permits, embassy or High Commission documentation and airline paperwork.

Our funeral director will advise the family on the documents required for the specific destination and assist with the necessary coordination.

Embalming and Coffin Preparation

International transportation of a deceased person may require professional embalming and specific coffin preparation depending on the destination and transportation requirements.

Our team will coordinate the necessary preparation and ensure that the coffin is prepared and sealed according to the applicable requirements for the repatriation.

Embassy and High Commission Coordination

Some destination countries require documentation, endorsement or other procedures involving their embassy or High Commission in Singapore.

Requirements differ between countries. Our funeral team will advise the family on the applicable procedures and assist with coordination where required.

Air Freight and International Transportation

Our repatriation service includes assistance with airline and air-freight arrangements where required. We coordinate the transportation of the deceased to the appropriate airport or cargo terminal and liaise with the relevant parties involved in the international transportation process.

We can also coordinate with the receiving family or funeral service provider overseas so that the necessary receiving arrangements can be prepared at the destination.
