Moving from Belgium

  • Moving from Belgium to an EU country

    In this case, you do not need to declare your personal goods or effects to Customs. The free movement of goods applies within the European Union (EU).

    However, rules are in force concerning:

    • Excise goods
    • Vehicles
    • Pets
    • Cultural goods
    • Prohibited goods
  • Moving from Belgium to a non-EU country

    Are you moving to a country outside the European Union (EU)? If so, you need to lodge an export declaration for your personal goods with Customs. To do this, you need to submit a list of the goods you are taking with you.

    There are additional specific rules for:

    • Excise goods
    • Vehicles
    • Pets
    • Cultural goods
    • Prohibited goods
  • What formalities do you have to complete with Customs in the country of destination and transit?

    Check with the authorities in the country of destination or transit to find out what Customs formalities need to be carried out in the country of destination or transit. Or ask your international moving company.
