Death of a U.S. Citizen

In the unfortunate event that a U.S. citizen dies in Spain, the U.S. Citizens Services Unit can assist the family in making arrangements for the return of the remains to the United States, if necessary, or for burial or cremation in Spain. There are, however, no U.S. government funds available to cover or defray any of the expenses involved. Please contact the U.S. Citizens Services unit, at 93-280-2227 if you experience the loss of a loved one in Spain. After hours, you may call (+34) 91 587 2200 and ask to speak to the duty officer.
