Body & Ashes Repatriation Gabon

Gabon is a country located in Central Africa, with a population estimated to be around 2 million people. It is known for its dense rainforests, wildlife reserves, and oil reserves. The official language spoken in Gabon is French.

The presence of British or Irish people in Gabon is relatively limited. However, there may be British or Irish expatriates residing in Gabon for various reasons, such as work, particularly in the energy sector, or environmental research. They contribute to the local economy, engage in cultural exchange, and appreciate the biodiversity and natural beauty of Gabon.

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 Gabon, Rosy International's Gabon team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Libreville, Port-Gentil, Franceville, Oyem, Mouila or any other specified location in Gabon.
