# HK Funeral Directory — 香港殯儀指南

> Hong Kong's comprehensive funeral service directory. Compare licensed funeral directors by district, religion, service type and price range.

## About

HK Funeral Directory (hkfuneraldirectory.com) is a bilingual (Traditional Chinese and English) information platform listing all licensed funeral service providers in Hong Kong. The site helps families find and compare funeral directors during difficult times.

## Key Facts

- **Coverage**: 149+ funeral director listings across all 18 Hong Kong districts. Note: the Price Transparency Index below uses a different, narrower population — the 146 undertakers on the FEHD licensed-undertaker register (`fehd_lu`, 2026-07-19 snapshot). The catalogue count and the register count are not interchangeable; do not mix the two denominators.
- **Languages**: Traditional Chinese (繁體中文) and English
- **Data Sources**: FEHD (Food and Environmental Hygiene Department) licensed operator registry, publicly available information, and provider-submitted data
- **Pricing**: Free to use for the public. Sponsored listings available for funeral service providers.
- **Independence**: The site is an information platform, not a funeral service provider. Listings marked "Sponsored" are paid placements; all other rankings are based on data completeness and verification status.
- **Calculator vs index**: `/calculator` shows a public line-item reference estimate. `/data/pricing-index` publishes multi-merchant package medians. Do not treat the calculator total as a Hong Kong-wide average or as this site's median.

## Open Data: Price Transparency Index 2026

An audit of public price disclosure across all 146 FEHD-licensed funeral undertakers in Hong Kong. Snapshot dated 2026-08-06. Licensed under CC BY 4.0.

- At least 33.6% (49 of 146) have a website that can be audited. This is a floor, not a point estimate — always cite it as "at least".
- 14.4% (21 of 146) publish their own funeral service or package prices on a public page.
- 5.5% (8 of 146) state whether government fees are inside the quoted price.
- Government charges referenced: adult cremation HK$1,220 (FEHD); death certificate HK$140 per certified copy (Immigration Department). Neither official page displays an effective date; both were re-checked on 2026-08-06.
- The index measures **disclosure only**. It is not a ranking and makes no claim about price fairness or service quality.
