The first step is to obtain a death certificate from the attending doctor or hospital. This certificate is needed to register the death with the relevant state or territory office and for funeral arrangements.
How soon after death does a funeral typically take place?

Funerals in Australia typically occur within one to two weeks after death, but this can vary based on religious or cultural practices and the availability of the venue or crematorium.
Can I scatter ashes anywhere?

While you can scatter ashes in many places, it's important to check local regulations or obtain permission if you're considering public land, national parks or waterways.
Is a casket the same as a coffin?

The terms are often used interchangeably, but traditionally, a coffin is wider at the shoulders and tapers towards the feet, while a casket is rectangular.
