Body & Ashes Repatriation Tanzania

Tanzania is a country located in East Africa, with a population estimated to be around 60 million people. It is known for its diverse wildlife, stunning landscapes including Mount Kilimanjaro and the Serengeti, and rich cultural heritage. The official languages spoken in Tanzania are Swahili and English.

The presence of British or Irish people in Tanzania is relatively significant due to the country's popularity as a safari and tourism destination, as well as opportunities in sectors such as conservation, education, and development projects. Many British or Irish expatriates choose to live in Tanzania for its natural beauty, volunteering opportunities, and cultural experiences. They contribute to the local economy, engage in various industries, and support community development initiatives.

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 Tanzania, Rosy International's Tanzania team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Dodoma (official capital), Dar es Salaam (de facto capital), Mwanza, Arusha, Mbeya or any other specified location in Tanzania.
