Body & Ashes Repatriation Burkina Faso

Burkina Faso is a landlocked country located in West Africa, with a population estimated to be around 20 million people. It is known for its traditional music and dance, vibrant markets, and the Mossi Kingdom heritage. The official language spoken in Burkina Faso is French.

The presence of British or Irish people in Burkina Faso is relatively limited. However, there may be British or Irish expatriates residing in Burkina Faso for various reasons, such as work, education, or personal connections. They contribute to the local economy, engage in cultural exchange, and appreciate the cultural diversity and traditional practices of Burkina Faso.

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 Burkina Faso, Rosy International's Burkina Faso team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Ouagadougou, Bobo-Dioulasso, Koudougou, Ouahigouya, Banfora or any other specified location in Burkina Faso.
