Burial permit
A burial permit is an official document issued by government authorities that allows the lawful disposition of a deceased person's remains, typically a burial or cremation. It ensures that the death has been properly reported and that all legal requirements are fulfilled before the body is laid to rest. The permit helps prevent unauthorized or improper handling of remains and is often required by funeral homes, cemeteries, and regulatory agencies. Essentially, it serves as an official authorization confirming that the death has been acknowledged and that the burial process complies with legal and health standards.
