Body & Ashes Repatriation Marshall Islands

The Marshall Islands is a small island country located in the Pacific Ocean, with a population estimated to be around 59,000 people. It is known for its stunning coral atolls, World War II history, and traditional seafaring culture. The official languages spoken in the Marshall Islands are Marshallese and English.

The presence of British or Irish people in the Marshall Islands is relatively limited. However, there may be British or Irish expatriates residing in the Marshall Islands 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 unique island culture and natural beauty of the Marshall Islands.

We can arrange collection from Majuro, Ebeye, Wotje, Jaluit, Laura or any other specified location in Marshall Islands.
