Having a loved one pass away here in Australia and request to have their remains returned to the country of birth is a common practice. At K&S Funerals we give the family the option of having a church or chapel service of their choice here in Australia with the coffin present before arranging to have your loved one transported back to their country of birth. The process consists of embalming the loved one in accordance with international embalming standards and liaise with the destinations embassy or consulate, along with freight companies on behalf of the family to ensure the safe passage. We also specialize in the recovery of people who have passed abroad.
