2065438+On September 7th, 2008, the Ministry of Civil Affairs promulgated the Regulations on Funeral Management, which made stricter restrictions on the area occupied by gravestones in cemeteries. The area limit of single burial site for ashes burial is reduced from 1 m2 to 0.5 m2, and the area limit of joint burial site is reduced from 1.5 m2 to 0.8 m2. However, the single burial site and the joint burial site of the remains shall not exceed 4 square meters.

In this way, the area of graves in cemeteries will be further reduced, which can save more land resources or build more graves to meet people's funeral needs. Moreover, the area occupied by cemeteries and tombs will be reduced, and their prices will be reduced accordingly, which is conducive to curbing illegal activities such as high-priced tombs and promoting the stability of tomb prices.

Matters needing attention in joint burial

First, whether you are moving a grave or building a new grave, you must choose an auspicious moment when you start digging. This is crucial. More importantly, after digging out the grave, don't stop for a few days before burial, so as not to be destroyed by wild animals or wind, rain and sun.

Second, ask someone to help, ask your very good friends to help, and the people who do things must not dirty the inner hall (grave). In particular, it is forbidden to spit, throw dirty things and wipe your nose in the inner hall.

Thirdly, if an old man dies first and the other one is still alive, he should try to "cover" it when he is buried, that is to say, the urn buried first should be sealed with a separate cover, so that there is no need to disturb the original one when burying another one in the future.

Four, other matters should generally be carried out in accordance with local customs, each place has its own customs, must be respected.
