Australia is a country located in Oceania, with a population estimated to be around 26 million people. It is known for its vast landscapes, including the Great Barrier Reef, the Outback, and iconic cities like Sydney and Melbourne. The official language spoken in Australia is English.

The presence of British or Irish people in Australia is significant due to historical ties and migration patterns. Many British or Irish citizens have immigrated to Australia for various reasons, such as work, education, or lifestyle opportunities. They contribute to the local economy, engage in various industries, and add to the multicultural fabric of Australian society.
In the event of the most unfortunate circumstances, should an individual from England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Ireland, or any non-native origin pass away in Australia, Rosy International's Australia team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide or any other specified location in Australia.
Conversely, australians can be found throughout the UK, with larger communities in London, Manchester, Birmingham, and Edinburgh.
In the event of the passing of your beloved in any of the mentioned cities above or elsewhere, we stand ready to assist you in repatriating your loved ones remains to Australia, if needed. In the subsequent sections, we will delve into the process of bringing your loved one back to Australia from the UK or Ireland.

What happens when Australians die in the UK or Ireland?

If your loved one is an Australians national and died in the UK or Ireland, it is essential to register the death with the local council to obtain the official death certificate. Should you desire to lay your loved one to rest in Australia, you would need to contact an International Funeral Director, such as ourselves, to initiate the repatriation process back to Afghanistan.

Why repatriate a body/ashes back to Australia?

There are several reasons why you might wish to repatriate your loved one back to Australia, especially if they were just visiting the UK or Ireland. In such cases, we strongly advise reaching out to the travel insurance company as they typically provide financial assistance. Other reasons why you may prefer repatriating your loved one back to Afghanistan include, Australia is known for its multicultural society. While burial practices can vary among different communities, some individuals may choose to be buried in their home country for cultural or religious reasons, maintaining ties with their heritage. Regardless of the reason we are here to help.

Please be aware that repatriating a body to Australia, usually requires the deceased to be an citizen or originate from Australia.
