Assistance in Receiving Payments
In the event of the death of certain categories of citizens, government agencies of the Kingdom of Norway make payments compensating for funeral expenses. This is handled by the Labour and Welfare Administration (NAV). We can find out about the possibility of our clients receiving these funds, and in case of a positive response – jointly form a package of documents, prepare the necessary statements, and submit the papers for consideration by the commission. We will also ensure that you receive the money within the allocated time frame.
Embalming the Body
To ensure that the body of the deceased is allowed for transportation by air or sea without any problems, it must be embalmed. We provide such services on a regular basis. The body of the deceased will be preserved and will be able to arrive in the destination country in a dignified condition. This will allow you to conduct the rites of farewell and burial in accordance with the traditions and customs of your region, without making allowances for the fact that several days have passed since the person’s death.
