Body & Ashes Repatriation Brunei

Brunei is a small sovereign state located on the island of Borneo in Southeast Asia, with a population estimated to be around 460,000 people. It is known for its rich oil reserves, Islamic architecture, and rainforests. The official language spoken in Brunei is Malay.

The presence of British or Irish people in Brunei is relatively limited. However, there may be British or Irish expatriates residing in Brunei for work, particularly in sectors such as oil and gas, education, or hospitality. They contribute to the local economy, engage in cultural exchange, and appreciate the natural beauty and Islamic traditions of Brunei.

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 Brunei, Rosy International's Brunei team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Bandar Seri Begawan, Kuala Belait, Tutong, Seria, Bangar or any other specified location in Brunei.

If your loved one is an Bruneians 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 Brunei, you would need to contact an International Funeral Director, such as ourselves, to initiate the repatriation process back to Afghanistan.

There are several reasons why you might wish to repatriate your loved one back to Brunei, 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, Bruneians predominantly follow Islamic traditions, which emphasize burial in accordance with religious teachings. Many individuals choose to be buried in Brunei to fulfill religious obligations and be laid to rest near their families. Regardless of the reason we are here to help.
