C. Burial

Burial is generally the more expensive after-death option in Hong Kong. The remains must be exhumed (i.e. the skeleton removed from the grave) six years after burial in a public cemetery.

 

On the day of burial, the cemetery office requires the “Certificate of Registration of Death”, the “Burial Permit” and payment of the relevant fee(s). A list of charges for cemeteries and crematoria services can be found on the FEHD website.

 

There are 10 public cemeteries managed by the FEHD, and a number of private cemeteries operated by religious, statutory and other private organisations that provide burial grounds for the deceased.
