DEATH INSURANCE

Those who come to live in Spain will first and foremost focus on integrating and getting used to the new living situation. Those who come from the northern regions will especially enjoy the mild, warm climate that prevails around the Mediterranean Sea. This is and remains the main reason for coming to live in Spain.

But of course another important reason is the economic story. Spain is and remains compared to Belgium, France and the Netherlands still a country that is relatively cheaper to provide for living. Once someone has settled in and life goes on its way, attention is often paid to the administrative issues such as what with the management of your assets, what with securing your belongings and also what if you die.

Funeral insurance reimburses the costs associated with a cremation or burial, such as the work of the funeral director, the coffin, the funeral printing, the catering and the ceremony if you so choose, but also the administrative paperwork that comes with a death in Spain. By taking out a funeral insurance, next of kin will not be saddled with all these costs. The cost of the funeral, even in Spain, can quickly run from a 4,000 euros to 7,000 euros. Taking out a funeral insurance takes care of both the organizational process and the reimbursement of costs.
