Repatriation Services Globally & in Türkiye

At Concordia Funeral Services, we provide swift, seamless, and religion-respecting repatriation services — whether internationally or within Türkiye — ensuring your loved one’s safe and timely return home.

Step-by-Step Overview

Professional Assistance and Management of All National and International Formalities

From start to finish, we manage all national and international arrangements with professionalism and sensitivity.

We act as your representative to liaise with consulates, embassies, notaries, third parties and local authorities, including the police and the prosecutor’s office.

Transportation and Mortuary Care

Your loved one is picked up by our professionals and transported from the place of death to our private mortuary.

We provide mortuary care until the day of the repatriation.

Document Gathering, Preparation and Translation

We ensure all required documentation for the repatriation is obtained, prepared and translated by certified, multilingual translators.

These include the International Death Certificate (Formul C) and any other necessary documents.

Family and Third-Party Communication (24/7)

We maintain clear and continuous communication with family members and third parties (e.g., receiving funeral directors), ensuring everyone is kept informed throughout the process.

Medical Treatments, Embalming, Hygienic Care and Dressing

We provide hygienic care and all necessary medical treatments, including embalming with a 10% formaldehyde solution for both domestic and international transport.

Dressing your loved one with care is also part of the service - whether using our specialized funeral attire or clothing provided by you.

We respect and accommodate the individual’s religious customs and traditions throughout these processes.

Air Transport Logistics

An airway bill (AWB) for up to 110 kg is organized, including customs clearance.

Coffin and Sealing

We provide a standard wooden coffin with zinc interior suitable for both domestic and international repatriation.

Once the your loved one is carefully placed in the coffin, the coffin is sealed by us for safe transportation.

Airport Transfer and Final Arrangements

We take care of all logistics, ensuring that the coffin is safely transported to the airport and that all final arrangements are made for its onward journey.

Additional Services (Upon Request):

Logistical Support for Personal Belongings

Personal belongings are picked up from their location, carefully packed and transported to the desired destination via DHL, ensuring everything is handled with the utmost care.

Purchase of a Special Suit or Dress

We can arrange for the purchase of a special suit or dress, according to your preferences, for your loved one to wear.
