Peace of mind with a prepaid funeral plan in Cyprus

Arranging a funeral in Cyprus can be complicated

Make it simple with an expat funeral plan

If you live in Cyprus, an expat prepaid funeral plan can help you to protect your family from the complications of arranging a funeral in Cyprus.

Avalon Funeral Plans are specially designed for UK expats living in Cyprus, or living between the UK and Cyprus, to pay for funeral costs in advance and provide help and support for your family when the time comes.

Why do I need an expat funeral plan?

The Cypriot funeral system is different to the UK, and together with language barriers, arranging a funeral for a loved one may be a difficult and stressful time for family.

Traditionally, funerals in Cyprus take place within 48 hours of the death meaning it could be difficult for friends and family still in the UK to attend.

Also, there is no crematorium in Cyprus, so if you want a cremation funeral you either have to opt for a burial instead or go through the repatriation process to be cremated back in the UK.

Avalon’s expat funeral plans are specially designed to let you pay for your funeral in advance and provide the support of an English-speaking team to help guide your loved ones through the complexities of arranging a funeral in Cyprus.

Your plan also moves with you, so if you split your time living between the UK and Cyprus, you can have a funeral in either country.

The Avalon Promise provides extra peace of mind for you and your family

 

If you choose to pay for your funeral plan in instalments, you can benefit from the Avalon Promise. Avalon will still provide all the services included in your plan if you pass away before your plan is fully paid if:

  • You die as a result of an accident at any time

  • Your plan has been in place for 12 months for a UK plan or 18 months for one of our Europe plans

This means your loved ones won’t have to make up the difference for the cost of the services in the plan and can focus on celebrating your life, instead of worrying about finding the money to pay for your funeral.

Full Avalon Promise terms, conditions and exclusions can be found in the UK plan Terms and Conditions and Europe plan Terms and Conditions
