If you wish to erect a gravestone or gravestone accessories on a gravesite for which you have a right of use or disposal, you will require a permit from the Garden, Cemetery and Forestry Office. This application must be submitted by the gravestone installer. In order for the application to be processed, the supplementary sheet with the signature of the person liable for the fee and the person authorized to use or dispose of the grave must be uploaded as proof. You can also apply online for permission to erect or alter gravestones and other structures in cemeteries.
