Iraq is a country located in Western Asia, with a population estimated to be around 40 million people. It is known for its historical sites, such as the ancient city of Babylon and the Ziggurat of Ur, as well as its cultural heritage. The official languages spoken in Iraq are Arabic and Kurdish.

The presence of British or Irish people in Iraq is relatively limited. However, there may be British or Irish expatriates residing in Iraq for various reasons, such as work, education, or diplomatic assignments. They contribute to the local economy, engage in cultural exchange, and appreciate the historical sites and cultural traditions of Iraq.
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 Iraq, Rosy International's Iraq team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Baghdad, Mosul, Basra, Erbil, Najaf or any other specified location in Iraq.
Conversely, iraqis can be found in cities such as London, Birmingham, Manchester, and Glasgow.
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 Iraq, if needed. In the subsequent sections, we will delve into the process of bringing your loved one back to Iraq from the UK or Ireland.

What happens when Iraqis die in the UK or Ireland?

If your loved one is an Iraqis 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 Iraq, 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 Iraq?

There are several reasons why you might wish to repatriate your loved one back to Iraq, 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, Iraq has a rich history and cultural diversity. Burial practices in Iraq vary among different communities and religious groups, but many individuals choose to be buried in Iraq to maintain connections with their homeland, honor their cultural heritage, and be laid to rest in familiar surroundings. Regardless of the reason we are here to help.

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