The death certificate must be translated into the official language of the repatriation country, the certificate must be notarized, and an apostille must be attached.
Additional documents may be added to the mandatory list depending on the repatriation country, from or to which the repatriation takes place, as it is a highly individual process, and each country has its own repatriation service regulations and laws.
To prepare documents for exhumation, please contact us at +371 27020605 for a free consultation, as the exhumation process is highly individual, and the required document checklist may vary depending on the location, reasons, and new burial site.
