Repatriation to Georgia

Q: Why do you give a range and not a fixed price?

Because the price depends on things known only after a short conversation: the exact destination in Georgia, the flight route and tariff, the place where the deceased currently is, and the consulate's requirements. The fixed price follows free of charge within two hours.

Q: Is a burial according to the Orthodox rite possible?

Yes. Partner funeral homes in Georgia know the customs of the Georgian Orthodox Church and coordinate the funeral service and burial with the family and the priest on site.

Q: What does an urn repatriation to Georgia cost?

Around €2,500 to €3,500. An urn is light and needs no zinc coffin.

Dignified repatriation of the deceased from Germany to Georgia — by air freight to Tbilisi, Batumi or Kutaisi, with complete handling of all documents and formalities. There is no price list, but there is a reliable range.

Transparency

What determines the price

For Georgia, three factors matter most — in order of impact.

Factor 1

The flight route

Repatriation to Georgia goes by air freight — to Tbilisi, or to Batumi or Kutaisi if needed. Route and tariff on the desired date are the largest item.

Factor 2

Coffin or urn

A transport coffin with a zinc liner is heavy and needs cargo space. An urn is light and considerably cheaper.

Factor 3

The destination

Tbilisi is easy to reach; a destination in the mountain regions means a second leg on site.

Frequently asked questions

What families often ask us

Why do you give a range and not a fixed price?

Because the price depends on things we only learn after a short conversation: the exact destination in Georgia, the flight route and tariff on the desired date, the place where the deceased currently is, and the consulate’s requirements. The range is an honest order of magnitude — the fixed price follows, free of charge and within two hours.

Is a burial according to the Orthodox rite possible?

Yes. Our partner funeral homes in Georgia know the customs of the Georgian Orthodox Church and coordinate the funeral service and burial with the family and the priest on site. Tell us your wishes — we pass them on to our partner.

What does an urn repatriation to Georgia cost?

Less than a coffin repatriation — around €2,500 to €3,500. An urn is light and needs no zinc coffin. Whether cremation is an option depends on the wishes of the deceased and the family’s religion; Orthodox families usually choose the coffin repatriation.

How long does a repatriation to Georgia take?

That depends on the official permits and the flight connection. Once all documents are in place, the deceased usually arrives at the destination within a few days. We keep you transparently informed about the schedule.

Can I call before having decided anything?

Of course. Most families call before anything has been decided. We advise free of charge, in English, German, Russian and Ukrainian, around the clock — including Sundays and public holidays.

When it has to be fast

One call is enough

We take over from the very first step — around the clock, including Sundays and public holidays. Free initial consultation, support with the authorities, in English and German.
