Repatriation from Grenada to Poland

We organise bringing the deceased from Grenada to Poland: documents from the country of death, Polish permits and transport of the body or urn.

Issuing authority and document
Certificate: the Polish Embassy in Caracas. The export permit comes from the authorities of the country of death.
Transport
The body is carried by air as air cargo. We agree the arrival airport and the handover point in Poland with the family.
Timing
The starosta and the consul have up to 3 days for their documents (Article 14(5) of the Act on Cemeteries). We give the full timing once the documents from Grenada are collected.
Price
We will quote the price once we know the details.

Procedure: Grenada

Poland is not a party to the 1973 Strasbourg Agreement on the Conveyance of Corpses, so bringing a body from Grenada always requires the Polish consul's certificate.

Documents from Grenada are authenticated with an apostille if a Polish office asks for it (the country is a party to the Hague Convention, HCCH, as of 13 October 2026).

Grenada: the Polish Embassy in Caracas is competent

Grenada is covered by the Polish Embassy in Caracas, which also serves Barbados, Dominica, Guyana, Jamaica, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago and Venezuela. The appointment is arranged by email. The embassy's page requires a copy of the death record with an apostille, and for an urn also a cremation certificate and a funeral home statement that the ashes are in a sealed container.

The page also says the starosta's permit goes to an office other than Caracas, which looks like a mistake. That is why we agree the recipient of the documents with the embassy before dispatch. We arrange the local death record, the apostille and the assembly of the remaining papers. After the consul's certificate, a funeral home prepares the remains for transport, and we organise carriage to Poland, collection on arrival and burial at the cemetery chosen by the family. We clarify the detailed requirements of this country's authorities on request in your case.

The Polish consul's certificate
