I have never heard of a minister getting paid to do funeral, my father never gets paid or never asks for any money to preform them.
He does not charge for preforming weddings either.

i dont know how much a minister gets paid, but i do know i worked in a bank and counted money and checks and saw many checks for thousands of dollars to individual preachers.
Almost ten times more than a honest person made while working for the bank at that time.

I'm not sure because it is usually arranged by the Funeral Director in my country. As such, it is mixed in with lots of other expenses. But you could look at a Wedding as a comparison if they won't give an exact price.

It all depends what denomination they are from, My minister does it free, How do I know, Both my pastor & assistant Pastor performed my 1st wife funeral, I try to force payment on them & they say NO.

My pastor never charges for these services. We gave him an offering when we did our Vows Renewal, but it was not mandatory.
