Riga cemeteries have available niches for urns in their columbaria. Urn placement is subject to a rental fee and annual contributions. A niche is leased for a period of twenty years.
The documents required for urn burial in Riga include:
If the urn is being buried in a family plot, proof of family ties and proof of a previous burial will be required.
To begin the process, you must obtain permission from the cemetery administration, pay for the services, and provide the urn with appropriate identification markings.
When burying a second burial in a plot where there is already a grave, there is no fee for renting the plot. However, additional costs may be incurred for the removal and reinstallation of monuments, fences, and other elements, which affects the final cost of the funeral services.
To bury an urn in a previously used plot, a document confirming the relationship with the deceased is required. Permission for the burial is issued by the cemetery administration located on its territory. This procedure does not require maintaining sanitary intervals after a previous burial in an occupied plot.
The urn is placed at a depth of 1 to 1.5 meters.
