Conclusion: the ambulance and the police should be called by the person who first saw that the person died (relative, neighbor, cohabitant). No need to involve third parties in this case. They may or may not be responsible for what you do. The business of funeral agencies is the organization of the funeral itself (time, priests, funeral service, dressing of the corpse, transport, memorial dinner).

They should not do paperwork because they have nothing to do with the deceased. They can only resolve these issues through their own channels, which is illegal and will ultimately cost you dearly.
