It depends on your country ! Some countries require potential donors to carry a consent card stating they wish their organs to be used for transplant after their death. Other countries have 'implied consent' in that they assume the person gives consent for organs to be harvested. Those 'opting out' must carry a card or statement that they do not give consent for their organs to be used. In both cases the next of kin is usually consulted before harvesting can begin.
