Funeral Insurance Fuengirola

Q: Can I add my UK-resident parent or family member to a Fuengirola funeral policy?

Family members who are habitually resident in Spain can be added to the same policy. UK-resident family members cannot be insured under a Spanish decesos policy because Spanish insurance regulation requires the insured to be resident here. However, a Spanish-resident family member can take out a separate policy to ringfence repatriation logistics for themselves - we often arrange this for expat couples where both have UK adult children but plan to be repatriated to the UK on death.
