Repatriation Route
Coordination of the international transfer of a deceased person from Thailand to France — documentation, local providers, airline and cargo arrangements, and handover at destination.
This is the documentation commonly involved on this route. The actual set is confirmed for each case, and can change depending on the circumstances of the death and the authorities involved.
Many cases in Thailand occur outside Bangkok. Ground transport to a suitable international airport is part of the case and affects both timeline and cost — one of the first things we establish is where the deceased currently is.
Documents issued in Thai generally need translation for the receiving side. Arranging that translation is part of the coordination rather than something left to the family.
France has its own requirements for the arrival of a deceased person from abroad, and a receiving funeral operator is normally involved. Both are confirmed for the specific case before the transfer is booked.
How It Works
International repatriation involves authorities, documents and providers in at least two countries. This is how we structure it so the family does not have to.
We take the details of the case: where the death occurred, where the deceased needs to be transferred, and the circumstances that affect what will be required.
We review the requirements for that specific route — documentation, authorisations, available providers and flight options — and come back to you with what the case involves.
We coordinate with the local professional providers and the relevant authorities in the country where the death occurred.
Documentation, airline, cargo and the flight itself are coordinated and tracked through to departure.
We coordinate the handover to the receiving party in the destination country and the continuation of the arrangements there.
The stages above describe how a case is typically managed. The specific requirements, sequence and timing depend on the countries involved and are confirmed case by case.
