The best case would be if I had enough notice of my death I could relocate to the Us a month or so before death, preferably somewhere close to the facility.
But I might not get that kind of notice, in which case I have to face the prospect of my remains being refrigerated or packed in ice or something and get shipped as fast as I can arrange to the US. If I put it in my will that my remains are to be transported, the legalities at my end should be OK, but what if there’s some kind of quarantine issue or something in bring a human body into the US?
Australia’s a quick flight from New Zealand, about a 2 hour flight to cross the Tasman Sea. The US is a lot further away and we don’t have a Free Trade Agreement with them at this time so I’m less confident of being able to get a package into the country without delay.
How does signing up for cryonics in another country work exactly?
Do they keep your body refrigerated after your death and then ship it to the other country? What are the legalities?
Or were you talking about signing up in the US and then going there if you learn that you are sick (but that wouldn’t work with unexpected death)?
I’m not really sure, hence all the questions.
