Grave ownership and transfer of title When the registered owner dies, the title to the grave passes to their executors or administrator or, if there are none, to their next of kin.
Who pays for the upkeep of a cemetery?
Local governments and municipalities responsible for cemetery maintenance may qualify for grants, especially if the cemetery is a public asset with historical or cultural importance.
How long do you own your grave plot?
How long do you own the cemetery plot? In most cases, when you buy a plot, you own it forever.
When you buy a grave, is it yours forever?
In some cases, it may be the responsibility of the cemetery or memorial site to provide maintenance, but in the vast majority of all other cases, it may fall on the family members or other interested parties.
Do you have your grave forever?
The law stipulates that graves cannot be sold for more than 100 years and authorities cannot go against that law. However, the law does permit grant of ownership to be extended and some accordingly write to owners every five years offering the opportunity to top-up their lease.
