Can you mail Cremated Remains from US to Canada What is required?

Answer 1

To ship cremated remains: 1-place the urn in a cardboard box, wrap entirely in plain brown paper, seal every seam completely with paper tape.

2-Mail through the US Postal Service registered and return receipt. This is the only way to guarantee safe arrival and safe handling.

It takes about 5 business days to get where it's going. It costs more than priority but it's a human being. That's worthy of respect. If something happened and the ashes were lost or spilled, the folks that that person belongs to are sure gonna sue so this is why the post office has guidelines. Cut corners and cost if you want but you're only cheating yourself.

Nothing special is required to fly with cremated remains in your carry on luggage. I have done it many times. Just make sure the urn can be X rayed or opened if it's made out of some kind of impenetrable metal. You don't need a certificate or anything.
