International Repatriation
From Ireland to another country
When your loved one passes away in Ireland, and wishes to be sent back to their home country to be buried or cremated, we can look after everything from the collection of the remains right up to transferring them to the airport.
For many years now, Staffords have built up a reputation of expertise in working speedily and efficiently through the bureaucratic minefield that is often associated with bringing a departed loved one home to another country. We will arrange everything such as obtaining the appropriate paperwork, e.g. out of state papers, and dealing with various embassies.
We will collect the remains from their place of death and bring them to our funeral home for preparation and we can also facilitate viewing for friends/family in one of our chapels in our funeral home. Staffords will then book the flights for the deceased and arrange to have the coffin transferred to the airport the day prior to departure.
International Repatriation
From another country to Ireland
When your loved one passes away in a foreign country and wishes to be buried back in Ireland, an extra dimension of painful difficulty can present itself to the grieving family.
We can make preliminary funeral arrangements with families over the phone internationally, followed later by a meeting in Ireland.
Once an undertaker is appointed in the foreign country, Staffords will liaise with that Undertaker on your behalf.
