Factor 1The routeRussia can be reached not only by air freight but also by road in our own hearse — often the more economical option. The actual route is the biggest item. Factor 2Coffin or urnA zinc-lined repatriation coffin is heavy and needs cargo space. An urn is lighter and cheaper. Factor 3The destinationMoscow or St. Petersburg are easy to reach; a place deep in the country means a second leg in-country. How we workGuided step by stepFrom the first consultation to the dignified handover in Russia — everything from one source. 1First contact & consultationYou call or send an enquiry.

Documents What is needed A repatriation to Russia usually requires the following documents. We obtain and check them for you. We handle the authorities for you. You will not have to deal with the registry office, health authority or consulate yourself. Death certificate Medical certificate of death (Totenschein) Leichenpass (corpse passport) Transport permit Consular approval of the destination country where required: embalming and sealing of the coffin Frequently askedWhat 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 Russia, the route and the rate on the chosen date, where the deceased currently is, and the consulate’s requirements. The range is an honest orientation — the fixed quote follows, free of charge and within two hours. By road or by air freight — which is better?Road transport in our own hearse is usually the more economical choice and plans well for destinations in the European part of Russia. Air freight makes sense for distant destinations or tight schedules. We will recommend the route that fits the destination and timeline. What does an urn repatriation to Russia cost?An urn repatriation to Russia costs around €4,500 – €7,500. An urn is light and needs no zinc coffin. Whether cremation is an option depends on the wishes of the deceased, the family’s religion and the law of the destination country. How long does a repatriation to Russia take?That depends on the official approvals and the route. Once all documents are in place, the deceased usually arrives within a few days — by road as well as by air. We keep you transparently informed about the timeline. Can I call before anything is decided?Of course. Most families call before anything is settled. We advise free of charge, in German, Russian, Ukrainian and English, 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.
