Repatriation
Getting your loved one back to their ancestral home
Going home, wherever that may be.
Sometimes death occurs in a land that is not our birthplace or that of our ancestors. You may wish to be buried in your native land... or come home to be buried in New Zealand.
Make sure you specify repatriation in your will. It’s a good idea to discuss what you want with your family and close friends so they are able to carry out your wishes. Academy Funerals offer a complete, world-wide repatriation service to all parts of New Zealand and overseas.
This includes embalming, the correct casket and specialist packaging for air transportation as well as legal documentation. Air transportation to the deceased’s native land also is included.
