[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you want to be buried somewhere far from where you're likely to die, you just have to accept being cremated.  It's just way too expensive and potentially too complicated (depending on which countries are involved) to ship a body long distance. Cremation at least means there isn't a time crunch.

I also think if you're really attached to being buried in a particular place, it's on you to arrange. My parents wanted to be buried in a particular cemetery and there was a concern it was reaching capacity, so they bought the plots.[/quote]

If he’s serious about this, he needs to arrange it himself, now - buy the plot (if even possible, India and China only do cremation due to population density), select both funeral homes, pre-fund or insure the body remains cargo costs, fill out and pay for all government permits and fees.

All costs only go up.

And don’t get screwed on the USD versus home currency games they play.

Curious what the MIL thinks about this. She’s obviously not invited nor making a case for common sense. [/quote]
