What are european removals?
European removals is the transportation of household goods by road between the UK and countries in continental Europe. Following Brexit, European removals from the UK are subject to customs documentation requirements that did not previously exist. Key points:
- Customs documentation is now required for all UK–EU moves, in both directions
- Goods are subject to inspection at EU customs points
- Personal effects moving as part of a permanent relocation generally qualify for duty-free import
- Transit times by road are typically 1-4 weeks, depending on the destination
PSS offers European removals to all major European destinations, including France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, Malta, and many more.
Also known as: Continental removals, EU removals
PSS Tip: Brexit has added complexity to European removals that did not exist before 2021. Always use a removal company with experience of post-Brexit European customs procedures.
