Body & Ashes Repatriation Micronesia

Micronesia is a region of small islands located in the western Pacific Ocean, with a population estimated to be around 550,000 people. It is known for its stunning coral reefs, World War II historical sites, and traditional island culture. The official languages spoken in Micronesia are English and various indigenous languages.

The presence of British or Irish people in Micronesia is relatively limited. However, there may be British or Irish expatriates residing in Micronesia 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 ecosystems and cultural traditions of Micronesia.

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 Micronesia, Rosy International's Micronesia team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Palikir, Weno, Kolonia, Tofol, Nett or any other specified location in Micronesia.
