Death of an American Citizen Abroad

Funeral Home Arrangements in Turkey

Absent any special circumstances (such as the death having occurred as the result of a crime), Turkish law allows remains to be embalmed as soon as possible following death.

The Next of Kin or another individual who is responsible for making funeral arrangements for your loved one should contact a suitable funeral home in Turkey to assist with local arrangements. While you are free to contact any funeral home you wish, and while we cannot endorse any private business, we are aware of several firms in metropolitan areas of Turkey that have provided adequate embalming and funeral services in the past:
