Body & Ashes Repatriation Tunisia

Tunisia is a country located in North Africa, with a population estimated to be around 12 million people. It is known for its rich history, ancient ruins, and beautiful Mediterranean beaches. The official language spoken in Tunisia is Arabic.

The presence of British or Irish people in Tunisia is relatively significant due to its popularity as a tourist destination, retirement spot, and work opportunities in sectors such as tourism, education, and development projects. Many British or Irish expatriates choose to live in Tunisia for its pleasant climate, affordability, 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 Tunisia, Rosy International's Tunisia team is ready to assist in repatriating their remains (including ashes) back to the UK or Ireland. We can arrange collection from Tunis, Sfax, Sousse, Ettadhamen, Kairouan or any other specified location in Tunisia.
