We understand the requirements for paperwork and processes to ensure the repatriation of remains can go as smoothly as possible.
How Body Repatriation from Ireland to the USA works:
Repatriation from Ireland usually takes about 7 to 10 days to complete back to the USA. The process time takes into consideration the lead times of all the different government departments we have to obtain paperwork from.
