Repatriation from Malta to Poland

Malta: the Polish Embassy in Valletta

In Malta consular matters are handled by the Polish Embassy in Valletta. The appointment is arranged by email, and documents can be submitted in person or by post. The certificate is collected in person or sent by post at the applicant's cost. The embassy's page states that besides the starosta's permit and the document confirming the death, additional papers may be needed, which are agreed with the consular office.

The sequence is this: a death document issued by the Maltese authorities, a funeral home on both sides, the starosta's permit in Poland, the consul's certificate and only then the transport. We organise each of these stages and make sure the documents are consistent. If the family does not bring the remains home, the consul asks the local authorities for a burial on the spot. Once the documents are ready, we take on the preparation of the remains and the transport to Poland, together with collection on arrival and the funeral ceremony the family plans. We clarify the detailed requirements of this country's authorities on request in your case.
