Body & Ashes Repatriation Mali

Mali is a landlocked country located in West Africa, with a population estimated to be around 20 million people. It is known for its rich cultural heritage, including the ancient city of Timbuktu, and its vibrant music scene. The official language spoken in Mali is French.

The presence of British or Irish people in Mali is relatively limited. However, there may be British or Irish expatriates residing in Mali for various reasons, such as work, particularly in sectors such as education, healthcare, or development projects. They contribute to the local economy, engage in cultural exchange, and appreciate the traditional music, art, and historical sites of Mali.

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 Mali, Rosy International's Mali team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Bamako, Sikasso, Ségou, Kayes, Mopti or any other specified location in Mali.
