Body & Ashes Repatriation Russia

Russia is the largest country in the world, spanning Eastern Europe and northern Asia, with a population estimated to be around 146 million people. It is known for its vast landscapes, historical landmarks, and cultural heritage. The official language spoken in Russia is Russian.

The presence of British or Irish people in Russia is significant due to business opportunities, education, and cultural exchange.
