Detailed Process : 

As the family of the departed person needs professional support at each step, the team segregates itself into sub-teams to carry out all the tasks simultaneously.

1. Legal permits -

The team begins the procedure by informing the concerned authorities of both countries about the demise of a citizen of Thailand in Japan. After receiving a permit from the concerned local and higher authorities of Thailand, the team collects the corpse from the hospital or the place of death. 

2. Shifting the body to mortuary -

After a primary inspection of the deceased body by the senior doctors in a certified medical facility in Japan and it is verified that there is no case of sudden or unnatural death, the body is then shifted to the mortuary for safe residence up until the documentation is complete. 

3. Completing the Legal Paperwork -

The team secures all valid papers from the concerned authorities of Japan for the legal transportation of the dead body internationally. The process is carried out by our trained, experienced and professional team members, Last Journey makes sure that the overall process is effortless. 

Please find a list of documents required for lawfully receiving the remains of a deceased :  

  • Death Certificate in original as well as duplicate ( copy ). 
  • Passport and other personal documents of the deceased person.
  • Permit for travelling from the airport authority of Japan. 
  • Embalming certificate signed by professional & certified doctors.
  • A letter from the health department stating the noncontagious state of the dead body.
  • Certificate for the coffin box to keep the embalmed remains with perfect sealing.
  • Details of flight tickets and air cargo tickets with timing, names and other essential information. 
  • No objection certificate or NOC
  • Local area police permit
  • Postmortem report if death occurred due to any unnatural cause.
  • Any proof of the deceased's staying in Japan like hotel bills, house rent, etc.
  • IDs of the accompanying family members who are participating in the Dead body transportation.

All these documents must be available in original and copy. The Last Journey team arranges 8-10 copies of each essential document and the copies of each document are submitted to the different departments related to the Repatriation procedure.

 4. Embalming Services for the human remains -

Once the family has consented to the process, the team moves the human remains to a certified embalming centre in Japan with the help of a local funeral direction team.

  • The move is carried out in a well-equipped ambulance van.
  • The remains are kept safe in a cool environment, a freezing box or a cooling cabinet. 
  • The embalming procedure includes the expulsion of body fluid from the body. A mixture of chemicals and water to preserve the body for long hours is then injected before coating the entire body with natron to forestall decomposition. 
  • The remains are then placed and secured in a sealed coffin box.

5. Booking air cargo tickets & flight tickets through online sources -

Two-way air cargo services and flight tickets are booked after completing the documentation process. 

As per the convenience and availability of the family members, the team finalizes a time slot and books air travel for the body and accompanying family members. 

Note - 

1) The transportation of the dead body to the airport through ambulance service, informing the airport authority and shipping the human remains is taken care of by the team at Last Journey.
