Body & Ashes Repatriation Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan is a country located in Central Asia and Eastern Europe, with a population estimated to be around 19 million people. It is known for its vast landscapes, including the Kazakh Steppe and the Altai Mountains, as well as its rich nomadic heritage. The official languages spoken in Kazakhstan are Kazakh and Russian.

The presence of British or Irish people in Kazakhstan is relatively limited. However, there may be British or Irish expatriates residing in Kazakhstan for various reasons, such as work, particularly in sectors such as energy, education, or diplomacy. They contribute to the local economy, engage in cultural exchange, and appreciate the diverse natural landscapes and cultural traditions of Kazakhstan.

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 Kazakhstan, Rosy International's Kazakhstan team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Nur-Sultan (Astana), Almaty, Karaganda, Shymkent, Taraz or any other specified location in Kazakhstan.
