Repatriation from Zambia to Poland

Zambia: an honorary consul in Lusaka

Zambian matters fall under the Polish Embassy in Pretoria. An honorary consulate has also operated in Lusaka since 1992. The date at the embassy is set by email, and documents can be submitted in person or by post. If the consul refuses, he issues a decision, against which a complaint can be lodged with the Minister of Foreign Affairs within 7 days, through the consul. The certificate is collected in person or sent by post.

The application is filed by the person entitled to arrange the burial or their representative, for example a funeral home employee, with the original power of attorney. A body is carried by a company specialising in international transport of human remains, while an urn after cremation can be taken by any means of transport. We gather the documents so that the family does not have to travel to Pretoria. We confirm the detailed requirements of this country's authorities on enquiry in your case.
