Moving abroad is more complex than a domestic move. Customs, documents, transport: with good preparation and an experienced partner, everything goes smoothly.

Plan early

Start planning at least two to three months in advance. International moves need more coordination: transport, customs formalities and possible permits. The earlier you start, the better.

Customs and documents

Depending on the destination country, different documents are required: moving inventory, ID, proof of residence. For non-EU countries, a customs declaration is often needed. We help you prepare the documents.

Important: Draw up a detailed inventory of all transported goods. It's required for customs and serves as proof for insurance.

The transport

Depending on destination and volume, transport is by road, sea or air. For Europe, road transport is generally the most economical. For distant destinations, sea container or air freight come into play.

Insurance

International transport insurance is essential. Long journeys and multiple transfers increase the risk of damage. Document valuable items with photos and insure them at their proper value.
