Grave Exhumation Services in Singapore

Exhumation is the process of exhuming the remains of a deceased loved one from their original grave at a burial site to be moved to a different location or changed to a different shape. This form can then be burned and then placed in a vase and returned to the family of the deceased.
In Singapore, the government implemented a burial policy that determined that a buried body should be exhumed after being buried for fifteen years. This mandatory policy was introduced as a preventive method to combat the land scarcity facing Singapore.
At Embrace Funeral Services, we understand that families facing exhumation and relocation for their loved ones will need an efficient and attentive service that cares for the remains of their loved ones until the whole process is over. We can provide this quality of exhumation service in Singapore.

What to Do After Exhumation?
When the exhumation process is over and the remains are placed in a vase, there are several post-exhumation options for families to choose how to want the cremated remains to rest.
Ashes are often used to store the ashes of a loved one after they are cremated. Specially designed to hold ash, these ornamental and vase-shaped containers are used to store ashes exclusively in memorable houses or columbariums. Embrace Funeral Services offers beautiful vases for families to choose from so that the ashes of their loved ones can be stored with dignity.

Kamu Columbariums
Public Columbariums are stated storage facilities used for storing urns. The cost of the vase area is provided free of charge by the government, but additional features such as the selection of a sheet and other procedures must be provided by the family of the deceased. Embrace Funeral Services will provide basic guidance and steps for families in this process to ensure a smooth transition period.

Special Columbariums
Similar to private Columbariums public columbariums, the only difference is that the facilities are privately owned. If families choose a special vase area in a private columbarium, Embrace Funeral Services will provide relevant information about purchasing them.

Burial at Sea
In addition to storing the vases in a columbarium, the families of those who died also have the option of distributing the ashes of their loved ones to the sea. Embrace Funeral Services can ensure that this is done by boat in Singapore or directly onshore.
