What to do in case of death?

An interactive checklist to guide you through the first administrative and personal steps.

  1. 1. Contact the doctor

    First 2 hours

    If the death occurs at home, immediately contact the family doctor or the 144 emergency service for the official confirmation of death and the issuance of the medical certificate (essential for all further steps).

  2. 2. Choose a funeral home

    Organise transport and the first wishes of the deceased.

  3. 3. Inform loved ones and the potential employer

    Before any public announcement, it is essential to personally inform the family, close friends, and any potential employer of the deceased.

  4. 4. Official notification to the Civil Registry Office

    The death must be officially reported to the Civil Registry Office of the place of death within 48 hours. This procedure is required to obtain burial or cremation permits.
