What Is Direct Cremation?
Direct cremation is the simplest and most affordable funeral option in Singapore. Without a wake, religious ceremony, or formal viewing, the deceased is collected, placed in a basic casket, and cremated at Mandai Crematorium. This option is ideal for families who prefer a private, straightforward farewell, or for those whose loved ones expressed a wish for simplicity.
Despite its simplicity, direct cremation is conducted with the same dignity and respect as a full funeral service. Our team handles all necessary documentation — including NEA cremation permits and death registration — and ensures that your loved one is cared for throughout the process. Ashes are collected and can be stored, scattered, or kept by the family.
