Question

Can I take ashes to Germany in my luggage?

Answer 1

yes, you can! just if they ask, you must tell them....sometimes they put a sticker on the box...human remains...I see ppl all the time with boxes of ashes...I work at the airport! I will have to do the same thing in may...bringing the ashes of my patents! put please...not the carry-on!

Answer 2

I strongly doubt it...check with the authorities...you might get in trouble otherwise...

Answer 3

you can if you dont tell anybody

Answer 4

As the others have said, check with the airlines regarding how to best transport them.

BUT: scattering ashes in Germany is illegal! German law only allows for burial of human remains in specified / approved places.

So - you may be able to bring them on board, but having them here may get you in trouble.

Answer 5

no

Answer 6

my bad yes you can..sorry ^_^

Answer 7

Definitely not in your Hand luggage!!!! Perhaps in your normal luggage... Ask your airline.

Answer 8

Best people to ask are the airline, TSA and I would call the german consultate nearest you as well.
