Around the World

A death overseas requires coordination and adherence to numerous national and international laws, airline regulations and local customs.

We will liaise directly with embassies, consulates, travel insurers and customs agents on your behalf to bring your loved one home promptly and efficiently. Typically, an overseas repatriation from New Zealand takes 6–10 days, depending on circumstances and destination.

When repatriating from an overseas location to New Zealand, the process is affected by the regulations of that country. A time frame for this will need to be assessed after liaising with the parties involved.
