Reporting a Death Case
If the death occurred outside a hospital, the police must be notified immediately by calling 999. Upon arrival, the police will fill in an initial death report and transfer the deceased to the hospital.
If the death occurred in a hospital, the hospital administration is responsible for filling in the initial death report and transferring the deceased to the morgue for issuing the death certificate.
The death certificate will have to be stamped by the police, after which they will issue a no objection certificate (NOC).
Separate No Objection Certificates (NOCs) may be required for releasing the body, embalming at the mortuary, and sending the body to the home country. The official death certificate will be issued upon the production of these NOCs.
