The latest regulations on burial in 2022 are that burials can be carried out in areas that do not have the conditions for cremation for the time being, mainly for areas with sparse population, vast cultivated land and inconvenient transportation.

Because this is according to the relevant content of the "Regulations on the Administration of Funerals" of the People's Republic of China (No. 225), and the areas that can be buried must be buried in the places specified by the people or the state.

Therefore, in 2022, the state did not issue the latest regulations on burials, nor did it explicitly issue a national ban on burials.
