If you are planning an international move, it is imperative that you become familiar with the customs regulations of your destination country. The customs process can become very complicated, which is why it's so important to enlist the services of trained and trustworthy international movers to guide you through the experience.
A country's customs regulations can refer to:
-
The duties or taxes imposed on your imported goods
-
The procedure for inspecting the goods and baggage entering the country
-
Items that are restricted or prohibited from entering the country
-
The documents required to enter the country
Customs regulations are intricate and ever-changing, which is why it's important to conduct thorough research on the regulations in your destination country so you are aware of what's necessary for customs clearance. If the mover you choose for hire offers customs brokering services (most do), they will be able to aid you in handling the process. Be sure to ask any mover you are considering for hire these important questions, to ensure that they are knowledgable--especially on the customs requirements for your specific country.
