From what I know, embalming certificate, death certificate and port health certificate are the requirement for human remains (correct term to use) entering/leaving Singapore. At Indonesia side, they may need other documents which I do not know. For the transportation part, you have to check with the airline on how to go about sending the "cargo" out of Singapore. Human remains are considered as cargo and passport is no longer required. Check with a local undertaker. They should be able to advise you.

Thanks the input.

 

I managed to find out what needs to be done end to end , including the courier company that will work with the undertaker to send the body as a cargo .

From Indonesia end , we just need a clearance letter from embassy and that will do .
