Body & Ashes Repatriation Guinea-Bissau

Guinea-Bissau is a small country located in West Africa, with a population estimated to be around 2 million people. It is known for its diverse ecosystems, including mangroves, wildlife reserves, and tropical forests. The official language spoken in Guinea-Bissau is Portuguese.

The presence of British or Irish people in Guinea-Bissau is relatively limited. However, there may be British or Irish expatriates residing in Guinea-Bissau for various reasons, such as work, education, or humanitarian efforts. They contribute to the local economy, engage in cultural exchange, and appreciate the biodiversity and natural beauty of Guinea-Bissau.

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 Guinea-Bissau, Rosy International's Guinea-Bissau team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Bissau, Bafatá, Gabú, Canchungo, Bissorã or any other specified location in Guinea-Bissau.
