Funeral Insurance vs. Avalon Funeral Plans: Understanding the Difference in Spain

Eligible for a ‘Fuss-free’ Cremation Plan?

When comparing funeral insurance (seguro de decesos) to Avalon Funeral Plans in Spain, it’s important to understand the distinct features and benefits of each to make the best decision for yourself and your family.

Funeral Insurance (Seguro de Decesos) in Spain:

Financial Reimbursement: A funeral insurance plan typically pays out a fixed lump sum intended to cover funeral expenses.

Cost Uncertainty: Funeral insurance may not fully cover the increasing funeral costs, potentially leaving additional unexpected expenses.

When Will Payments Stop? You could pay in more than you get back.

Strict Cancellation Policies: If you decide to cancel the policy, or if you miss a few payments, and the plan is cancelled by the insurer, you likely won’t have any of the funds you’ve paid in refunded.

Age Limited: Some funeral insurance providers restrict the age with which someone can take out a policy. Like most insurance products, factors like age and health could impact the monthly price.

Health Questionnaires: Some funeral insurance providers in Spain require customers to submit a health questionnaire before agreeing to cover.

Doesn’t Move with You: If you decide to leave Spain and return to your home country, you likely won’t have cover from the policy, and won’t be able to claim a refund for any of the funds you have already paid in.
