Losing a loved one is never easy, especially when they pass away abroad. One of the most difficult challenges families face in these situations is arranging the repatriation of the deceased’s body. Transporting a deceased person from France to India requires strict legal adherence, careful coordination with airlines, and customs clearance. This guide explains how to arrange reliable dead body transport services from France to India, and how Anthyesti Funeral Services can support you every step of the way.

Understanding the Legal and Bureaucratic Requirements for Repatriation:

Transporting a deceased body from France to India involves several essential legal and bureaucratic steps. It is crucial to ensure that all documentation is correct and properly submitted to avoid any delays.

Key Documents Required for Transporting a Body from France to India:

The following documents are necessary for the repatriation process:

  • Death Certificate: The death certificate issued by the local authorities in France is the first essential document for initiating the repatriation process.
  • Embalming Certificate: International regulations require the body to be embalmed, which is a procedure that preserves the deceased’s body for the journey. An embalming certificate from a licensed funeral home in France is mandatory.
  • No Objection Certificate (NOC): A NOC from the Indian embassy in France is required to legally transport the body from France to India. This document is also necessary for clearing customs upon arrival.
  • Consular Report of Death: The Indian consulate in France issues this report, which certifies the cause of death and serves as an essential document for Indian customs.
