What Are Mortuary Services?

Mortuary services encompass all professional care provided to the deceased after death and before the funeral or cremation. This includes body collection from hospitals, homes, or nursing facilities; cold storage preservation; NEA-licensed embalming; showering and dressing; cosmetic restoration; and the preparation of all necessary documentation including death certificates, cremation permits, and embalming certificates.

In Singapore, mortuary services are regulated by the National Environment Agency (NEA). Embalming must be performed by a licensed embalmer in an NEA-approved facility. Our facility meets all NEA requirements, including proper infection control protocols, waste disposal procedures, and facility sanitisation standards. We maintain the highest standards of dignity, respect, and professionalism in every aspect of mortuary care.

Mortuary services are essential for ensuring that your loved one is presented with dignity during the wake period, that health and hygiene standards are maintained, and that all legal and regulatory requirements are met. For international repatriation cases, certified embalming and proper documentation are mandatory under IATA regulations.
