In addition to autopsies, Riga morgues provide body storage (usually for up to 45 days), provide sanitary and hygienic services, and process and issue necessary documents. A stay at a Riga morgue after 45 days is available for a fee of approximately €20. If the body is not retrieved within the allotted time, it will be buried at the state's expense. Morgue registration records contain all information about the deceased to enable family members to identify the deceased.
The deceased's next of kin, any person who has undertaken funeral arrangements, or a trusted funeral director may obtain the necessary funeral documents free of charge from the morgue.
The cost of sanitary, cosmetic, and hairdressing procedures, embalming, dressing, casket placement, and body release is set by the institution's official price list and is updated periodically. You can find out the current rates for a specific morgue and the storage fee calculation procedure by calling +371 2944 9849. The funeral director on duty will answer your call 24/7.
