New York,

Good day. I am Antipov, a citizen of Ukraine. My own sister, left Ukraine in 1994 for the United States and later became a US citizen. She is currently in critical condition at a New York hospital (New York, NY 10016, United States). Doctors say that her life will end soon. On January 22, 2024, our father will visit my sister in New York. It is not excluded that at that time the sister will die and the question will arise about taking her ashes to the territory of Ukraine for burial. I am asking you to help me and let me know how, on the basis of which procedures and documents it is possible to take my sister’s ashes from the USA to Ukraine.
