Body & Ashes Repatriation Luxembourg

Luxembourg is a small landlocked country located in Western Europe, with a population estimated to be around 633,000 people. It is known for its beautiful countryside, historic castles, and global financial center. The official languages spoken in Luxembourg are Luxembourgish, French, and German.

The presence of British or Irish people in Luxembourg is significant due to work opportunities, particularly in the financial sector, and cross-border commuting. Many British or Irish expatriates live in Luxembourg for employment reasons and contribute to the local economy, engage in cultural exchange, and appreciate the cosmopolitan atmosphere and natural beauty of Luxembourg.

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 Luxembourg, Rosy International's Luxembourg team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Luxembourg City, Esch-sur-Alzette, Differdange, Dudelange, Ettelbruck or any other specified location in Luxembourg.
