WHAT EACH PACKAGE INCLUDES

Each package, at a glance

  • Fully equipped pine coffin, transport hospital → chapel → church → cemetery and the ritual items, with quantities. The price fits within the funeral allowance; formalities, the aid file and the ceremony are optional.

  • The Essential package, plus a doctor to certify the death, embalming, preparation of the deceased and 24 h refrigeration. For a death at home.

  • Premium coffin, organised wake, large wreath and a memorial meal for 12–16 guests. Formalities included. Our most chosen package.

    Luxury coffin, funeral limousine, master of ceremonies and formalities included — for a distinctive ceremony.

HOW TO CHOOSE

How to choose the right package

Choosing a package comes down to the type of ceremony the family wants, the place of death and the budget available. For a dignified, straightforward funeral priced within the allowance, after a death at hospital, the Essential package is enough; after a death at home, choose the At-Home package. For a traditional ceremony with a wake and memorial meal, choose the Traditional package.

If the family prefers cremation, the Cremation package is more affordable and avoids the cost of a burial plot. For a ceremony that stands apart — with a limousine and master of ceremonies — the Premium package brings everything together. We're happy to advise by phone, with no obligation.

THE FUNERAL ALLOWANCE

How the allowance covers the cost

For insured or retired individuals, the state grants a funeral allowance of 9,192 RON. The price of the Essential, At-Home, Traditional and Cremation packages fits within this amount. Optional extras are paid separately, at the listed price.

Through assignment of rights, the aid is paid directly to us within a few working days, and the family does not advance it. The assignment goes through the aid file: it is included in Traditional, Cremation and Premium, while for Essential and At-Home we prepare it for 350 RON, optionally (you can also file it yourselves). Full details are on the funeral allowance page.

TRANSPARENCY

Firm prices, no surprises

Every package price is firm for everything listed, in line with ANPC consumer-protection rules on pricing transparency. There is no out-of-hours surcharge. Formalities (350 RON) and the aid file (350 RON) have a listed price when they are not included in the package.

A few items fall outside the package because they depend on the family's own choices: a new burial plot, a gravestone or memorial, the priest's fee and future memorial meals. All are presented upfront, with a clear price.

Before any commitment, we provide a written quote with every item broken down. That way you can compare at your own pace and know exactly what you're paying, with no costs appearing later.

    The price shown is final. No VAT or other charges are added to it. What you see in the list is what you pay for the package items.

  • What's the difference between Essential and Traditional?

    Essential has a fixed list: a pine coffin, one transport route and the ritual items, with quantities. Preparation, formalities, the aid file and the ceremony are paid separately. Traditional includes them and adds a higher-quality coffin, an organised wake, a wreath and a memorial meal for guests.

  • Why does the At-Home package cost more than Essential?

    At-Home (5,200 RON) is for a death at home. It includes everything in Essential, plus a doctor to certify the death, embalming, preparation of the deceased and 24 h refrigeration.

  • Can I customise a package?

    Yes. Any package can be adjusted — a different coffin, an additional wreath, photo or video services. We'll tell you the price difference before you confirm anything.

  • What's not included in the package?

    A new burial plot, the memorial monument, the priest's fee and future memorial meals are chosen separately. With Essential and At-Home, civil-status formalities (350 RON), the aid file (350 RON) and ceremony organisation (500 RON) are also paid separately, and with Essential so are preparation and embalming. All are presented in advance, with a clear price. See also our general rates.

  • Is embalming included in the packages?

    It is included in At-Home, Traditional, Cremation and Premium. With Essential it is optional and paid separately. It becomes mandatory when the deceased is shown with an open casket in a public place (chapel, funeral home, mortuary house) and when transported for burial to another locality, at a minimum of 30 km (Government Decision 741/2016). It is carried out only in authorised premises.

  • How do I pay if the package exceeds the allowance?

    Premium exceeds the allowance by 1,708 RON. For Premium or customised packages that exceed the allowance, we can arrange instalments — a deposit and the remainder in agreed payments, set out in a contract.

  • Does the package include the religious service?

    The priest's fee is paid separately, directly to the parish, as it depends on the parish and the length of the service. Coordinating with the priest is included in Traditional and Premium; with Cremation, the team assists at the farewell ceremony only; with Essential and At-Home, ceremony organisation costs 500 RON.

  • Can I change the coffin in the package?

    Yes. The standard package coffin can be replaced with a different wood. We'll tell you the price difference before you confirm — no other hidden costs.

  • Does the package cover the memorial meal?

    Essential and At-Home include 12 memorial alms and 6 packs with food and tableware for the memorial meal. Traditional includes a memorial meal for 12–16 guests. With Cremation, a memorial meal can be added separately, based on the number of guests.

  • How quickly can I arrange a package?

    We answer the phone day and night, and our team arrives within 60–90 minutes. A complete ceremony can be organised within a few days, depending on scheduling.

  • Does the package include transport to the cemetery?

    Yes, transport is included in every package: with Essential, hospital → chapel → church → cemetery (one route); with At-Home, the same route from the home; with Cremation, to the crematorium. For longer distances, over 100 km, 4 RON per km is added, communicated in advance.

  • Can I book a package in advance?

    Yes. Advance planning is available: you choose the package and agree the terms ahead of time, and the price is locked in as agreed. Many families choose this to spare their loved ones difficult decisions at a hard moment.
