FREQUENT QUESTIONS

About the comparator

  • Which funeral package is the most suitable?

    It depends on your budget and the type of ceremony. The Essential covers a dignified funeral and usually fits within the allowance. The Traditional adds a superior casket and ceremony. Cremation is an alternative, and Premium is for a larger farewell. The comparator shows the out-of-pocket cost for each.

  • What does the comparator's 'family pays' mean?

    It is the amount the family pays after the funeral allowance is deducted from the package price. For the basic packages, the allowance often covers the full cost, leaving zero.

  • Why does the family payment change with the allowance scenario?

    The funeral allowance is 9,192 RON for insured persons and retirees and 4,596 RON for the uninsured, in 2026. The larger the allowance, the smaller the family's payment. The comparator recalculates instantly for each scenario.

  • Does the comparator include the burial plot?

    No. Package prices do not include the burial plot, as it varies widely by cemetery and area (3,000–30,000 RON). If you already own a plot, the cost does not apply. If not, we estimate it separately.

  • Can I switch from one package to another?

    Yes, any time before the ceremony. You can also customize a package, adding only the elements you want. We give you an exact quote, with no charge for what you don't use.

  • Are the prices in the comparator firm?

    Yes, the package prices are firm. Only optional costs (burial plot, gravestone) vary and are quoted separately. For a complete quote, one phone call is enough.
