A Complete Guide to Repatriation Services: Bringing Loved Ones Home with Care

Repatriation services are required when one dies away from home — the other city or country. All deaths are painful from the loss of someone you love and this was one such case, making things even harder. Families wish to return the body back home so that they can carry out final rituals. 

This is the area where these services come to assist, and make it an easier process with respect.

Repatriation means bringing back the body of a person who passed away somewhere else. It can be a long and emotional process. However, the intervention of trained organizations such as Kaveri Ambulance simplifies this process and it becomes easier, faster, and more respectful.

What Are Repatriation Services and Why Do Families Need Them?

Repatriation services help move the body of a person who has died from one place to another — usually from another city or country back to their hometown. This service is very important when:

• Death of an individual on a trip for vocation, work, or study
• An Indian Dies Abroad
• Families desire the final rites of their deceased ones as per the rituals of religious or cultural tradition to which they belong.

In India, it is the religious belief of many people that the last rites should be performed in their native place. The repatriation ensures that with complete care and respect.

At Kaveri Ambulance, We provide comprehensive repatriation services in India, to foreign lands as well. We take care of all — they hardly have much time to fret apart from the emotional side.

How Repatriation Services Work – Step by Step

Here is how repatriation is usually done:

1. Getting a Death Certificate

A certificate from a doctor or hospital. This tells you that the person has passed. You will require this document for any further actions.

2. Getting Police or Embassy Clearance

In some cases (as in international repatriation), one would require the police or the embassy’s consent before transferring the body.

3. Embalming and Coffin Box

The body is cleaned and preserved (this is called embalming).Then it is placed in a special box or coffin to protect the body for its journey.

4. NOC – No Objection Certificate

You need a No Objection Certificate from the airport or health office before you can fly the body to another place.

5. Transport by Road, Train, or Air

Depending on where the person needs to be taken, the body is moved using a road ambulance, train, or flight. Kaveri Ambulance provides all these transport options.

6. Receiving the Body at Home

Once the body reaches the home city or village, it is again taken to the house or cremation/burial ground using an ambulance.
