What to do when someone passes away?

We understand the difficulties when a relative passes away abroad. We will simplify the process, and managing the whole repatriation for you. We provide the best support to help you and your loved one return home by providing a professional and dignified service.

What do I need to do?

The first thing that’s required is to complete our Instruction form which can be emailed to you by our team Global Funeral Repatriation will then take care of all further aspects of the repatriation until the person who has passed away has reached their final destination.

The official documents we need from you are:

Death certificate (if a doctor has certified the death- coroner is not involved)
Passport of the person who has passed away

Timescale

We have great experience in expediting the repatriation process and can usually achieve a repatriation within a few days (paperwork depending)- please speak to our team about this. However, if speed isn’t of the essence, we can arrange a repatriation and then hold pending a flight date. Our fees include 90 days mortuary care, although if you speak to us regarding any longer-term requirements, we will be most accommodating.

Terms and conditions for Repatriation Packages

The package price is valid for a deceased weighing up to 120kg. Weights between 121kg – 170kg may have an additional flight fee – this will quoted to you prior to booking.

The package price is inclusive of our light oak veneer coffin (except where stated otherwise eg. Philippines repatriations). Changes to this are available. Please be aware that other coffins and caskets will also affect the weight of the shipment and may increase the fee from the airline also.

Additional time required for mortuary care outside our 90 day offer will also be charged a standard daily fee of £5.

We take full responsibility for the care of your loved one from the point of collection to the point of delivery at the port/airport of departure.

The Repatriation of human remains from the UK to Philippines. This service can include the movement of human remains in the form of cremated remains. We only ever offer a personal service, whereby a member of our family will collect the ashes or remains from any UK destination and deliver them to anywhere in Philippines.

Airport transfers and ferry crossings to Philippines

Global Funeral Repatriation offers a comprehensive international repatriation service to Philippines. Our all-inclusive price is based on the paperwork, transportation of the coffin and a flight or ferry crossing to Philippines.

Paperwork

We have our own paperwork that is made available to you following a repatriation. We complete a ‘First Call & Quotation’ document, and a ‘Repatriation Report’ document.

First call and quotation

This document is used to outline all requirements that you have, it specifies all documents required of you, and us in order to repatriate; legally, effectively, and preparatory with a future funeral service in mind. This document also outlines the quotation as discussed with you, broken down for your advice.

Repatriation report

This document specifies all of the details of the person who has passed away. It acts as a checklist for paperwork that we are required to collect on your behalf, logs and jewellery or property that we handle, and requires a signature from third parties to countersign the information on that document (e.g. a member of staff at a hospital where we collect someone who has passed away), justifying that the person has any jewellery or property at the time that we attended.

Then a third party at the location where we take the person who has passed away to, will sign to take custody of those items listed, out of our care).

Both documents are duplicated meaning that we can leave one copy with the person that we hand over to upon disembarkation. We can then email or post copies upon request.

We understand how distressing the passing of a loved one can be, especially if they have passed away in another country or a location that is not close to home. Our family strives to take out the stress of getting your loved one home quickly, efficiently and with the upmost respect and dignity.

If your loved one has passed away in the Uk and you require advice on getting them back home to Philippines then contact us today on 0330 175 7517.

I, the applicant, instruct Global Funeral Repatriation of 73 Scrooby Road, Harworth, DN11 8JN to conduct all necessary administrative and practical preparations to enable the efficient repatriation of the deceased (body or ashes). I understand that this may involve attending at the Consulate or Embassy on my behalf in order to obtain the relevant documentation (possibly including a death certificate) to allow for the Repatriation to go ahead. I, the applicant, consent to and instruct Global Funeral Repatriation of 73 Scrooby Road, Harworth, DN11 8JN to fully embalm the deceased as outlined in page one of this document, using a British Institute of Embalmers, Embalmer. I understand the process of embalming and why it is necessary. A certificate of Embalming will be produced by the Embalmer upon completion. Global Funeral Repatriation recommends that the Applicant does not leave the United Kingdom until all required paperwork is in place for the Repatriation to take place. This enables Global Funeral Repatriation to have the ability to contact (via telephone, email and in person), the applicant for any requirements that may arise prior to the departing flight. Some communication may be required at short notice and may carry urgent requests or information- it is therefore paramount that Global Funeral Repatriation are able to contact the applicant via telephone, email and in person with ease until the Repatriation flight departs. Unless otherwise stated or agreed, our Repatriation package includes a simple oak effect coffin (or with Repatriation of Ashes, an oak urn). Global Funeral Repatriation expects that the Applicant will make available all required documents of them at the earliest convenience and with efficiency to enable the Repatriation to take place with the outlined timescale. Our fee quoted includes up to 90 days of mortuary care from the date of which the deceased enters the care of Global Funeral Repatriation. Mortuary care from then is chargeable at £50 per full 7 days thereafter. Where a deceased is in our care for longer than 14 days, Global Funeral Repatriation reserves the right to charge any additional fees relating to changing flight fees. I, the applicant, have the legal right and capacity to authorise Global Funeral Repatriation to Repatriate the deceased as outlined in page one of this document, and fully agree to all details within the whole document.
