When can I take out a funeral insurance policy?

The maximum purchase age depends on the payment method chosen: With periodic premiums (Repatriation, Basic, and Comprehensive options), there is no minimum age to take out the policy and the maximum age is 69. With a single premium (Basic or Comprehensive options), the minimum age to take out the policy is 60 and there is no maximum age.

Minors must be insured on the policy together with one of their parents or legal guardians.

How many people can be insured?
