Funeral Regulations in Georgia

Funeral homes in Georgia must be licensed by the Georgia Secretary of State and comply with state regulations regarding embalming, cremation, and burial, including a 24-hour waiting period before cremation unless waived by a coroner.

Georgia Funeral Directors Association (GFDA)

Georgia has one of the highest rates of green or natural burials in the U.S., partly due to the state's rural landscape and the presence of several dedicated natural burial grounds.
