Municipality of Ridderkerk: taking a deceased person out of the Netherlands

The funeral director usually arranges transport abroad for you. You need permission from the municipality for transport from the Netherlands. The municipality then issues a ticket: a laissez-passer. This is done by the municipality where the death certificate was drawn up.

For more information contact the municipality at phone number +31 180 451 234, send an e-mail to info@ridderkerk.nl or fill in our contact form.
