Preparing The Body For Transportation

Be aware that some states require embalming for a body to enter the state and some states require embalming for a body to leave the state. A body must also be embalmed in some jurisdictions before it can be transported by a “common carrier” like an aeroplane, train, commercial bus, or trucking company.

Ask your elderly family members about their beliefs regarding embalming if your religion forbids it and contact us to learn more about it.

Transporting Your Loved One's Body With Utmost Care

Our funeral representatives pick up bodies at the airport’s cargo terminal after they have been flown by cargo planes. However, you can escort the body (i.e., transport the body on a passenger aircraft with you), and you can pick it up yourself when it arrives.

How long Does It Take To Fly A Deceased Person From The USA To India?

It typically takes 1 to 2 days for a dead body to be transported by air from the USA to India and arrive at the destination airport. Several variables affect how long the journey will take. These factors that affect travel time are listed below.

How quickly a death certificate can be issued by the physician? A death certificate is typically issued quickly when someone passes away in a hospital. However, it might take a little longer if the death occurs away from the hospital.
The body must go through a postmortem examination after an unnatural death, which could take up to 5 hours and result in a certificate.
Another important factor is the accessibility of embalming facilities. The dead body must be transported to the closest city if there are no embalming facilities nearby to be embalmed.
Few of the locations will have constrained flight availability; as a result, if a flight or cargo service is not available, it might take longer.

Requirements to be taken care of after the demise of a close one in the USA

Death Certificate: With assistance from the US consulate, procure the death certificate. This is a necessary step as the death certificate is a prerequisite for all procedures, like claiming insurance, preparing for repatriation, and funeral services.

Depending on the guidelines of the country, the process of obtaining a death certificate can vary. It is better to stay updated on this information to keep oneself prepared to get the document in time.

Legal proceedings: Every country follows a certain set of laws and orders. There are civil liabilities to be considered when there is a demise, depending on the cause of the death. The US consulate can be requested to recommend a legal counsel for representing the departed in case of any liabilities.

Transporting or Repartition of the remains: Following the death of a person, all the procedures like conducting an autopsy, post-mortem and clearance report are necessary. The time taken to manage these could differ based on the laws in the country.

This implies the amount of preparation and procedures one has to go through for Repartition services from the USA to India. This can be full of hassles and could lead to delay if not proceeded with proper knowledge. Hence, it is best to get in touch with Beleiv who has rich experience in this domain and can assist you with the best practices and procedures-obtaining all necessary documents, clearing legalities, and making arrangements with the airlines to transport the dead body overseas from the USA to India.
