If a tag with required information cannot be placed on the body, where can it be placed before interment?

When the required identification tag cannot be affixed directly to the body, placing it in the casket capsule is appropriate. The casket capsule serves as a sealed container that can hold important information, protecting it from the elements and ensuring it remains with the deceased during the interment process. This practice safeguards vital identification details, providing assurance that they remain associated with the individual being interred.

The other options do not fulfill the specific requirement as effectively. Placing the tag on the coffin, while potentially viable, does not guarantee that it will remain with the body after burial, particularly if the coffin is opened or disturbed. A funeral register is not an appropriate location since it serves as a record for attendees of the funeral, and it does not accompany the deceased. Similarly, placing the tag outside the burial plot would not satisfy the requirement to keep identification information directly linked to the body. Thus, using the casket capsule ensures compliance with the regulations regarding identification of the deceased.
