The reason why many bereaved families who want to buy a cemetery are hesitant is that in addition to the cemetery's own factors such as price, environment, location, etc., they are also dissuaded by rumors from the outside world. Some people say that the useful life of the cemetery is only 20 years. This statement is absolutely ridiculous.
Since ancient times, our country has had great respect and reverence for matters of life and death. The government has also approved the use of part of the land as cemeteries. Of course, it will not be changed overnight. Demolition or transfer in just 20 years is not only a trouble for countless families, but also disrespectful to the deceased. As for the use period of cemeteries and mausoleums, my country's relevant management measures have also been clearly marked. Most commercial cemeteries in our country were opened in the 1990s. In 1992, the Ministry of Civil Affairs issued the "Interim Measures for Cemetery Management" which stipulated that "the one-time collection of tomb management fees for commercial cemeteries shall not exceed 20 years." In 1998, the Ministry of Civil Affairs issued the "Notice on Further Strengthening the Management of Cemetery Opinions" requiring that "in the future, the service life of cemeteries and ashes storage spaces will in principle be 20 years as a cycle." By 2011, the Ministry of Civil Affairs explained the management opinions that 20 years means that the cemetery management fee is paid in a 20-year payment cycle, which does not refer to the service life of the cemetery. Therefore, as long as the tomb protection fee is paid on time, you can continue to use the cemetery.
