Being financially prepared for your funeral spares your family and friends from an expense they might not be able to afford. A funeral can cost a fair sum of money and many people do not have that kind of money immediately available.
Here in Spain many people choose either a pre-paid funeral plan or funeral insurance to cover the cost of their funeral.
PREPAID FUNERAL PLAN
With a pre-paid funeral plan you choose what kind of funeral you want and either pay for it upfront or pay instalments over a fixed period of time.
If you pass before the instalments are paid your family can either choose to pay the remainder and use the plan or take the money paid to date minus a fee.
A pre paid funeral plan can be a good idea for many reasons;
- One number to call and everything is dealt with on your behalf, from funeral home to flowers and everything in between - all in English- This can be especially helpful if the language is a problem and all of the red tape involved
- If you are over a certain age a pre paid plan may work out more cost effective - In fact 'funeral insurance' has a upper max age limit for application so a pre paid funeral plan is the only way
- You have duel country cover so if you passed in the UK you would be covered also
- The policy can also be permanently transferred to the UK if you decided to move
- For a couple you can have a '1st death policy' So you pay one policy premium and it covers the passing of the 1st person FUNERAL INSURANCE
Like other forms of insurance, you pay regular premiums for your funeral insurance cover.
This can be paid in monthly affordable instalments. The premiums are surprisingly low from as little as 12€ a month per couple.
