Burial Expenses - Burying the deceased

The Hevra Kadisha (Burial Society), which is obligated to handle the burial of the deceased without payment, is the one that operates within the boundaries of the local authority in which the deceased person resided or the one that operates within the boundaries of the local authority in which he died (there are Hevrot Kadisha that handle several local authorities).

Please note: kibbutzim and moshavim are not entitled to collect any payment for burying the deceased on their land unless the burial plot was purchased during the lifetime of the deceased.
