About Compare Funerals

Since 2020, Compare Funerals has been offering its services in Spain, providing English-speaking funeral directors throughout the country. Our plans are backed by a independent trust.

Funerals in Spain

Funeral planning in Spain has changed over the years, with many people now opting for direct cremations due to the absence of chapels in most Spanish crematoriums. The number of direct cremations in Spain is now estimated to be around 70%, making it the most popular funeral option in the country because they are generally much simpler and cheaper than traditional funerals.

The Spanish Funeral Process

In Spain, funerals must happen within 48 hours of passing, which can be difficult for the relatives of expats living abroad. Many want to be present immediately, but organising the journey may take some time. If you opt for one of our plans, we will ensure that the morgue will provide additional time for the family to attend. Furthermore, a lot of paperwork needs to be completed when somebody dies in Spain, and our plans will guarantee that all these documents are taken care of for you.
