I realise that we haven't started to live in Fethiye permanantley but serveral of my friends and family wanted to know what happens when we die over there (yes I know we stop breathing)lol. I understand that there is no cremation but what about burial? I should think that it costs a fortune to be brought back to the U.K. Any ideas about burials over there.Costs, procedures etc? Anne ( I told U it was cheerful) but it does have to be faced.!!! x

well whats the answer here then..??
if i go first and the mrs meets another bloke,not only does he get my house family and a nice warm spot in front of my fire, does he get buried with my mrs and i end up on me jack jones. what happens when we all get up to hevan,its going to be a bit stressful if ive hooked up with some angle chick and trish wants me back..and what about the new bloke ,wheres he fit in up there???
or is it a swingers paradise in hevan?a bit of a free for all????
or even worse what about if i come back as a spider, hide in the corner in the bedroom,and i have to watch her and the new bloke doing it....jeeezzz,,and what do i have to look foward to,doing it with a spider...or even worse i might come back as a lady spider and have a big hairy thing crawling over me..
im gonna do her in,,,and she can be the bloody spider,why should she have all the fun!!!!!
-
This begs another question, What would you choose to come back as?
I fancy being a tortoise,
I could still be in Turkey or somewhere hot:D,
born with a house:D
lead a very leisurely life and live for 200years:D

Hi Anne.....there is an area set aside by Fethiye Council for foreign residents. If you log onto www.fethiyetimes.org.uk In the headings click on living then scroll down to wills/death it will give you all the info you require.
I think it is essential you discuss this with family as normally here burial takes place within 48 hours of death and it may not be possible for family to get here in time to attend the funeral.

Trust you lot!!!!! but I really needed a serious answer on this occasion so thanks Brian. I will have a look. Anne

The Fethiye Times details provide a brief outline. What is really needed is a definitive procedure to follow.
-
Sorry for pointing out the obvious here, but if anyone has a question based on a serious nature like this then you should seek professional advice from the British Embassy in Istanbul or The British Consulate in Fethiye. They will advise you correctly and in detail, thats what they are there for.

We have asked several couples who have retired to Fethiye and Calis and not one of them knew the answer or had even discussed it with each other and most of them haven't made a will yet. Maybe they think that they are the only ones who are going to live forever!! lol.
-
The Consulate and Embassy do advise. However, in my experience, their advice is based on government information and what should happen theoretically.
On this forum there is a detailed procedure for obtaining a residence permit. This post has been brought upto date by members experiences.
I think that the original question was looking for something similar.
Someone on the forum may have already done the research or in the worst situation had to help someone through this procedure and therefore has practical experience.
By sharing the experiences prevents a couple of things. It stops 1001 people visiting or telephoning the consulate. Also when the terrible day arrives, maybe late at night or over a weekend, we will at least know where to start.
-
Totally agree with you on that Paul, my post was to give another source of information as, apart from Brians, there was no other answer or advise given to Anne.

i think it cost about 2 thousand pounds to be sent back to be cremated in uk
and then those costs for this service
i think they will bury you for about 60 to 70 pounds up by the pound by uzumlu
but within 48 hours of your death.
you need to let your families know which you reqire,
when your dead, you r dead.the living fight out for whats left.
