Our Shipping Process: How We Bring Your Loved One Home
Shipping cremated remains to Mexico requires precise coordination with the Mexican Consulate/Embassy, U.S. funeral homes and receiving funeral homes (funerarias) in Mexico. Here’s how we handle the process:
Logistics assessment
We determine the most direct routing from the place of passing to the final destination in Mexico, minimizing delays and unnecessary transfers.
Consulate coordination
We interact directly with the Mexican Consulate to obtain the Visado de Transito (Transit Permit), so you don't have to navigate bureaucratic requirements during your time of grief.
Documentation and translation
All necessary paperwork, including embassy permits in Mexico, death certificates, embalmer affidavits and health department letters, is prepared and translated into Spanish for Aduanas (Mexican Customs).
Flight booking
Using our Known Shipper status, we book secure cargo space on commercial airlines to ensure your loved one travels securely.
Final transport
When we help ship remains to Mexico, we also work with the receiving funeraria or family residence in Mexico to confirm they're ready to receive your loved one at the airport and complete ground transport.
