The prefect of the department draws up a list of the régies, companies and associations and their establishments to which it has granted authorisation, in accordance with Article L. 2223-23.
This list is updated every year. It is displayed in the reception areas of funeral chambers, mortuary rooms and crematoria and is available to families there.
The list includes the business name of the operator, the activities for which authorisation has been granted, the full address, telephone and fax numbers and, where applicable, the e-mail address. Funeral operators are listed by commune, by arrondissement in Paris, Lyon and Marseille, and in alphabetical order.
