Body & Ashes Repatriation Suriname

Suriname is a country located on the northeastern coast of South America, with a population estimated to be around 600,000 people. It is known for its diverse ethnic makeup, including people of African, Indian, Javanese, Chinese, and Indigenous descent. The official language spoken in Suriname is Dutch.

The presence of British or Irish people in Suriname is relatively limited. However, there may be British or Irish expatriates residing in Suriname for various reasons, such as work, research, or cultural exchange programs. They contribute to the country's development efforts, engage in activities related to their respective fields, and enrich the cultural diversity of Surinamese society.

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 Suriname, Rosy International's Suriname team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Paramaribo, Lelydorp, Brokopondo, Nieuw Nickerie, Moengo or any other specified location in Suriname.
