Post-Brexit: What You Need to Know

Since the UK left the EU, moving to Europe involves customs declarations for household goods. In most cases, personal effects and household items being moved as part of a permanent relocation are exempt from import duties. We handle all the paperwork, including:

• Customs inventory lists
• Transfer of residence (ToR) declarations
• Certificate of origin documents where required
• Guidance on prohibited and restricted items by country

Our experienced team has handled hundreds of post-Brexit moves and knows the requirements for each European country.

The International Move Process

3. Loading — Everything is carefully loaded onto our vehicle with a complete inventory list. You'll receive a copy.
