WHETHER THE DEATH OF A LOVED ONE IS ANTICIPATED OR UNEXPECTED, THERE ARE A NUMBER OF THINGS THAT MUST BE DONE FOLLOWING A DEATH IN IRELAND.
What to do when someone dies
Immediately following the death, you should notify the next of kin, the deceased’s family doctor (GP) and the Registrar of Births, Marriages and Deaths. You should also notify a funeral director, who will help you with the funeral arrangements and guide you through the decisions which need to be made.
