Repatriation Services
Repatriation Services
At Fordes, we have many years’ experience of dealing with repatriation of deceased persons to and from Ireland.
Death abroad: When someone dies abroad, a funeral director in the country where the death has occurred, will arrange all paperwork and flights for repatriation back to Ireland.
We will liaise with the oversees funeral director in order to organise the funeral arrangements in Ireland when the deceased arrives home.
Where travel insurance has been purchased the insurance company may cover the cost of repatriation to Ireland.
Death in Ireland: When someone dies in Ireland and needs to be repatriated to another country, we can arrange all the necessary details. We will liaise with the local coroner in Ireland, the embassy of the country where the deceased is to be repatriated to, the airlines to arrange flights and the oversees funeral director to advise of all details. We will arrange all the necessary paperwork and ensure that all legal requirements have been adhered to.
