Embalming is a process that uses special chemicals to slow down the natural decomposition of a body. This allows the deceased to be presented for viewing for an extended period and facilitates transportation over long distances.

Important Considerations:

• Legalities: Embalming may have legal requirements depending on the cause of death and the intended transportation distance. Consulting with a funeral home or medical professional can clarify these details.
• Religious and Cultural Practices: Some religious or cultural traditions might have specific guidelines regarding embalming. Discussing this with your family and religious leaders is important.
• Costs: Embalming can add to the overall funeral expenses. Funeral homes typically provide transparent cost breakdowns for their services, including embalming.
