About this statute

This Order sets the requirements for burying people in places of worship. This article defines “a place of worship” as a building of a religious-based organisation with an authorisation issued by a competent authority. A burial place in a place of worship must be a designated spot shown on the worship place plan, and the application procedure follows Law No. 11/2013 on cemeteries. A legal representative of a registered religious ministry or church must apply for permission to bury a deceased person in a place of worship. The District Mayor issues authorization to bury in a place of worship.
