Since Brexit, moving household goods from the UK to Germany involves customs procedures and additional planning. UK citizens no longer benefit from free movement, and all removals must now be accompanied by the correct documentation.
If you are relocating your main residence, personal belongings can usually be imported duty-free, provided they have been owned and used for at least six months and are part of a genuine change of residence. A detailed inventory and supporting paperwork are required.
Many people experience a gap between leaving their UK home and securing permanent accommodation in Germany. Temporary UK storage is a practical solution while housing, registration, or visa matters are finalised.
Gentlevan manages this process from start to finish, helping ensure your move to Germany is planned correctly, compliant with customs rules, and delivered without unnecessary delays.
Germany is one of the most popular European destinations for UK professionals — drawn by Berlin's thriving tech scene, Munich's engineering and finance sector, and Frankfurt's banking hub. Families and retirees value Germany's excellent public services, central European location, and high standard of living.
Post-Brexit, moving to Germany requires a visa for stays longer than 90 days, plus customs documentation for your household goods. Gentlevan Removals handles all customs paperwork and includes 2 months of free UK storage with every Germany removal — giving you flexibility to finalise your new address before we deliver.
Costs depend on volume, origin/destination, and service type. A shared load is cost-effective for smaller volumes; a dedicated load is faster and exclusive. Contact us for a free, personalised quote.
Yes. Post-Brexit, a detailed inventory, proof of residence, and a customs declaration are required for duty-free import. We guide you through the process to ensure everything is in order and avoid delays at the border.
On a part load, delivery typically takes 7–14 days from collection. For a dedicated load, delivery is usually within 2–5 days depending on the route.
Yes — we offer 4 weeks of complimentary UK storage with every Germany removal service. This gives you time to finalise accommodation, visas, or other administrative matters before your belongings are delivered.
UK citizens now need a visa for long-term stays in Germany. Options include a work visa, student visa, freelance visa, or the job-seeker visa. You should apply before relocating and register with the local Einwohnermeldeamt (registration office) within 14 days of arrival.
