Body Repatriation from UK to Nigeria

At DAR Funeral Repatriation, we understand how challenging this time can be, and we’re here to help you every step of the way. We offer complete, end-to-end repatriation to Nigeria, taking care of everything from the collection of the deceased to provision of coffins and caskets. We partner closely with Coroners, government officials and funeral directors in Nigeria to ensure your loved one is returned home seamlessly with dignity and respect.
 
Repatriation to Nigeria typically takes between 7 – 10 days, however this can be delayed in certain situations such as if a coroner is involved. Once in our care, we will care for the deceased, complete embalming (acquire certificate for travelling) and prepare the coffin in line with international repatriation.
