Short answer
Yes, this is one of the clearest grounds for an expedited appointment. You will need the death certificate or hospital notification, proof of your relationship to the deceased, and confirmation of the funeral or ceremony date.
Why the rule works this way
Bereavement cases are time-bound and easily verified, so missions handle them quickly when documents are complete. Delays usually come from missing relationship proof, not from the mission.
For Denmark, appointments in India run through VFS Global under Danish Agency for International Recruitment (SIRI), with indicative processing of 15 days short-stay, 1–3 months residence. The rule above applies at every Indian centre serving this mission.
