What it costs to bring someone home

Three packages, starting at £2,095. Whatever we quote you on the first call is put in writing, and nothing is added to it later without you agreeing first.

All three cover the same ground: the documents both countries ask for, a coffin that meets the rules for international transport, the journey itself, and one person you can reach while it is happening. What changes between them is how much we take off your hands, and how fast it moves.

These are the figures a repatriation starts at. What sits above them, and why, is explained further down the page.

  • Priced in writing before anything is booked
  • From anywhere in the UK, to Romania and across the EU

Three packages, and the honest difference between them

Each tier contains the one below it, so the lists here only show what is added. If you are not sure which one your situation calls for, say so on the phone and we will tell you, including when the cheapest one is the right answer.

ECO

From £2,095

Everything a repatriation actually requires, and nothing beyond it. We obtain the documents, provide the coffin and bring your loved one home at the normal pace.

What it covers

  • Consultation and coordination from the first call
  • The documents required for repatriation, obtained on your behalf
  • A coffin that meets the requirements for international transport
  • Transport to the destination, by air or by road
  • Someone to speak to at every stage of the process

How long it takes Usually 7 to 14 days. The clock is set by how quickly the documents are issued and when transport is available, not by us.

Standard

Most chosen

From £2,695

The same journey with the paperwork taken off you completely, translations and legalisation included, and no need to chase anyone for news.

Everything in ECO, plus

  • All documentation handled end to end, not simply obtained
  • Translations and legalisation (apostille) where a country asks for them
  • A better-finished coffin
  • Coordination with the family and the authorities kept up throughout
  • Updates on where things stand, without you having to ask

How long it takes A few working days once the papers are issued, subject to transport. Faster than ECO mainly because nothing waits on you.

Premium

From £3,895

For when the funeral date is already fixed, or the family cannot wait. Your case is handled first and moved on the earliest route we can get.

Everything in Standard, plus

  • Your case handled ahead of the others in the queue
  • A line answered 24 hours a day by the person handling it
  • Priority transport, on the earliest route available
  • A premium coffin
  • A private farewell at a London chapel before departure, if you want one
  • Personal support until the repatriation is finished

How long it takes As fast as the documents and approvals allow. This is the package for emergencies, and it is the one to ask about if a date has already been set at home.

Why every price on this page starts with the word from

Because three things move the final figure, and none of them are known until we hear the details. We work them out on the first call and tell you the number then.

Where they are going

The distance, and whether the journey runs by air or by road. A flight to Bucharest and a road transfer to a village in Suceava do not cost the same.

Which documents the two countries want

Some destinations need translation and legalisation, some need consular paperwork, and some need very little. This is usually the biggest difference between one case and the next.

The circumstances of the death

A coroner's involvement, a post-mortem, or a death away from home adds steps, and sometimes cost. We will say so as soon as we know.

You will never be asked to decide anything before you have the full figure in front of you, and there is no charge for asking what it would be.

Tell us where they are, and where they need to go

That is enough for us to tell you which package covers it and what it will cost. Two minutes on the form, or one call. If it is urgent, phone us instead, the line is answered day and night.
