Sometimes the legal and regulatory complexity of a repatriation can seem a little daunting, so we try to keep things as simple as possible. We breakdown every element of our pricing so you can see exactly what you are paying for and, should you decide to entrust us with your repatriation, you will be looked after by one named member of our staff throughout. You will also have access to our exclusive Repatriation Progress Tracking tool, making it easy to follow every stage of your loved one's journey to their final place of rest. As part of our repatriation service to Ireland, we will obtain the necessary permits that allows transportation of the Deceased from the United Kingdom to Ireland. We are typically able to complete the repatriation of your Loved One within 36 hours of the responsible Coroner issuing the permission to remove the Deceased from the United Kingdom. All arrangements can be made by telephone, fax/email and post. No visit to our office is required. We will, if requested, dress the Deceased in their own clothing once embalmed. As the coffin required will not need to be zinc lined, viewing can be offered by the Local Funeral Director upon arrival in Ireland. A simple gown can be provided for use during the repatriation to allow for dressing in Ireland by the Local Funeral Directors if requested. We will usually require the Passport of the person who has died. However, if this is not available, please let us know and we can make alternative arrangements. |
Outside LondonWe are pleased to announce that we are now able to offer flights not only from all London Airports but also out of Manchester and Birmingham. If the Deceased is situated near/in Birmingham, Liverpool or Manchester, please contact our Runcorn office. This option does not affect the price. Direct ServiceAs an alternative to our air service, we are now able to complete the repatriation direct to the Irish Funeral Director of your choice. In this case, your chosen Funeral Director in Ireland will not be required to meet the Coffin at the airport, we will deliver directly to their premises. This service includes all necessary customs clearance. If you would like to consider this service, please contact us for a quotation. The price will be in the region of £750 more than transportation by air. The location of your chosen Funeral Director will have a bearing on the final cost. With this service you can rest in the knowledge that your loved one is in our care from the moment that we effect the transportation from their place of death until we hand over the care to your local Funeral Director in Ireland. |
