Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to pay customs duties when moving my belongings to Europe from the UK?

Since Brexit, UK residents relocating to EU countries may be eligible for Transfer of Residence (ToR) relief — which allows you to import personal effects duty-free, provided certain conditions are met, including that you’ve owned the items for a minimum period and are moving your primary residence. The rules vary slightly by destination country. Your dedicated move coordinator will walk you through the documentation requirements for your specific destination and help you prepare the correct paperwork to minimise delays and costs at the border.

We handle removals to all major European destinations, including France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Ireland, Greece, and more. If your destination isn’t listed here, call us on 0800 014 7676 — we cover most European countries through our established freight partner network and can advise on timelines and requirements for your specific route.

Transit times depend on your destination. UK to France, Belgium, or the Netherlands typically takes 2–5 days. Spain, Portugal, and Italy generally take 5–10 days depending on your specific delivery address. Germany and Switzerland are usually 3–7 days. We’ll give you an accurate delivery window estimate when we prepare your quote, based on your destination, volume, and preferred timeline.

We handle all UK-side export customs documentation as part of our service. For destination-side import clearance, we work with established European partners who manage the process on your behalf. You’ll need to provide some personal information — proof of residence, passport copy, inventory list — and we’ll tell you exactly what’s needed for your destination country well in advance of your move date.

Yes we offer part-load European removals for customers who only need to move a portion of their belongings. Your items travel in a shared container with other customers’ goods heading in the same direction, which makes the service more cost-effective for smaller volumes. Alternatively, if you prefer a dedicated vehicle for privacy and speed, we can arrange that too. We’ll recommend the most suitable option based on your volume and budget when we prepare your quote.
