The Metropolitan Cemeteries Board is responsible for Fremantle, Karrakatta, Guildford and Midland Cemeteries and Pinnaroo Valley and Rockingham Regional Memorial Parks. Each one offers a wide range of options for burials and commemoration.
If you wish to bury a person somewhere other than these places, an application must be accompanied by the written consent of the site owner and the dead person’s family. Approvals are only granted in exceptional cases.
The remains of a deceased person can only be cremated in Western Australia if a permit has been issued by a medical referee.
