The Central Board of Health (CBH) has announced updated fees for public and private burial services, effective 5 January 2026.

The revised rates for digging a single grave are as follows: $100 for stillborns or children under three years, $250 for children aged three to under 15, and $500 for persons aged 15 and over.

Care and maintenance of a single grave for one year, or part thereof, will now cost $150.

For private burial plots containing multiple graves, the fee for the first grave is set at $300, with each additional grave space after the first costing $50.

The CBH advises that all payments must be made at its office on Upper Church Street.
