D. Garden of Remembrance
The government operates 13 Gardens of Remembrance, where members of the public can apply for scattering of cremated ashes of the deceased free of charge. Those who wish to mount commemorative plaques in memory of the deceased after scattering of cremated ashes in the Gardens of Remembrance may only do so through masons registered with the FEHD. These masons are allowed to supply and mount commemorative plaques in the Gardens of Remembrance, but fees will apply. A list of these contractors can be found on the FEHD website.
Memorial rituals may be performed at the garden and the ashes can be scattered by family members or FEHD staff.
You can apply to Hong Kong or Kowloon Cemeteries and Crematoria Office in person or through an authorised agent. You can download the application form by clicking here. The applicant must have the original copy of the “Permit to Take Away Cremated Ashes” and the copy of the deceased’s proof of Hong Kong identity.
