Customs & Paperwork

Customs and Post-Brexit Regulations

Moving household goods from the UK to Austria post-Brexit requires careful preparation of customs documentation. You will need a detailed inventory list in English and German, complete with estimated values for insurance purposes. To qualify for duty-free entry of used personal effects, you must apply for Transfer of Residence (ToR) relief via HMRC and Austrian customs authorities before your shipment departs. Key paperwork includes an export declaration processed through the Customs Declaration Service (CDS) in the UK, alongside accompanying transit documents. We strongly recommend checking official GOV.UK and Austrian federal portal sources for the most up-to-date regulations regarding residency registration and duty exemptions.

Route Logistics

Route Logistics and Transport

A removal from Truro (Cornwall) to Linz (Austria) covers approximately 1,150 miles (1,850 km) and typically takes between 4 and 7 days. The journey begins on the A30 and A38, connecting to the M5 and M4 towards London and the southeast ports. For cross-channel transport, removal trucks usually utilise the Eurotunnel from Folkestone to Calais or the Dover-Calais ferry crossing. Once on mainland Europe, the route traverses France and Germany via major motorways such as the A4 and A3, before entering Austria towards Linz via the A1 West Autobahn. Loading in Truro requires careful scheduling around narrow Cornish lanes, and you should check with Cornwall Council regarding any parking dispensations needed for a Luton van or HGV.

How to Save on This Move

Cost Saving Tips for Your Move

International moves from the UK to Central Europe can be expensive, but several strategies help reduce overall expenses. Opting for a part-load (groupage) service, where your belongings share container or truck space with other consignments, can significantly lower your base price if you are flexible on delivery dates. Decluttering before obtaining quotes reduces the total volume measured in cubic metres, directly decreasing removal costs. Packing non-fragile items yourself can also save on labour fees, provided you create an accurate packing list for customs clearance. Always obtain multiple quotes from accredited international movers and book well in advance to secure optimal rates for your 2026 relocation.
