The Nevada Cremation Order is a document used in Nevada for individuals who wish to formally specify their wishes regarding cremation after their death. It is also sometimes referred to as a cremation authorization form. The order is legally recognized by the state and ensures that the individual's wishes are followed. There are two types of Nevada Cremation Order: Authorization for Cremation and Disposition of Cremated Remains. The Authorization for Cremation outlines the individual's wishes to authorize cremation and is signed by the individual, the next of kin or another legally authorized person. The Disposition of Cremated Remains outlines how the individual wishes for their cremated remains to be handled, such as burial, scattering, or storage, and is also signed by the individual, the next of kin or another legally authorized person. The Nevada Cremation Order provides peace of mind to individuals who wish to make their wishes about cremation known to their families and friends. It is an important legal document that should be completed properly and filed with the state in order to ensure that the individual's wishes are followed.
