Dealing with repatriation of deceased persons

Repatriation processing

If the mournful event strikes one of our relatives or friends far from home, in Italy or abroad, Ofisa will immediately set in motion the complex process of repatriating or transferring the body to the place where the loved one would have liked to rest.

Thanks to an important network of services and contacts, as well as agreements with Italian Consulates all over the world, we can offer maximum efficiency and timeliness in national and international transport and in the various other procedures required, such as organising the wake, ceremony, burial or cremation.

Unfortunately, very often even a sudden death can, in addition to the emotional difficulty of the moment, create bureaucratic and administrative problems, especially when the deceased is outside Italy or when one wants to transfer the body abroad.

That is why prefectures throughout Italy issue mortuary passports, which allow the body or ashes to be transferred from one state to another, from one continent to another.

Among the many mortuary services offered by there is also the handling of the paperwork and logistics inherent to the repatriation of the deceased, a service that the funeral company in Florence has created precisely to help those who are far away and do not have the possibility or ability to manage an entire journey, as well as, of course, all the documents to be drawn up for the transfer of the body.

Geographical distance is not a problem, thanks in part to a large fleet of cars and vehicles that allows close relatives to travel comfortably with their deceased loved one.

But above all, as we were saying, Ofisa personnel are close to relatives and relatives's relatives to take care of all the details of the transfer together with them, in addition to the tasks for the creation of the aforementioned mortuary passport, which, if customers so wish, can be carried out directly by our employees quickly and with the guarantee of a perfect transfer to and from Italy or throughout the country.

Among the many means we have at our disposal are hearses capable of accommodating more than one family member, thus enabling us to prolong the closeness and farewell to those who have left us.
