Clearance of human remains requires advance airline notification, specified documentation, and direct on tarmac release to relatives. Procedure requires foreign going airlines to notify Customs and Airport Authority in advance, provide the deceased's particulars and relative's contact, and ensure relatives are informed. On arrival, relatives contact customs, complete a release form, and submit documents-death certificate, embalming and packing certificate, diplomatic mission certificate, and passport. Customs verifies identity and documents and releases human remains directly from the tarmac to relatives; airlines record delivery. Completed forms are forwarded to the Import Section as a kuccha bill of entry and to immigration to request passport cancellation.
