First steps when death occurs at home

If the situation is urgent or unclear (you are not sure the person has died, an accident, a suspected violent death), call 112. Do not move the deceased until the death has been certified.

If the death is evident, for example after a long illness, call us. The At-Home package includes the doctor who certifies the death and issues the medical death certificate — the document without which nothing can proceed.

What the Essential package covers, carried into At-Home

The At-Home package starts from the Essential package. The table shows exactly which items and quantities are included, with transport starting from the home.

How it is paid

The package price (5,200 RON) fits within the state funeral aid of 9,192 RON, for insured or retired persons. Through rights assignment, the aid is transferred directly to us. The assignment goes through the aid file, which costs 350 RON and is optional; you can also file it alone.

If you want the wake at home, we help with room preparation and the furniture required. We give you a clear quote from the start.

What you need to do at home

  • If the situation is urgent or unclear, call 112
  • Call us — the At-Home package includes the doctor for certification and pickup from home
  • Do not move the deceased until certification is done
  • Have the deceased's ID ready, if it is accessible
  • Choose the clothes for dressing — we handle everything else

Formalities and documents

If you choose the formalities (350 RON), we obtain the civil death certificate from the Registry Office and the remaining clearances, so the family doesn't need to visit any institutions. If you prefer to do them yourselves, we tell you which documents are needed.
