You usually need a detailed packing list, valued inventory, passport copy, and export shipping papers. Larger shipments may need more. Ask us which documents apply to your move.
Yes. Large amounts of currency, antiques, wildlife products, narcotics, and weapons need special permits or are prohibited. Food items and plants may also be restricted in the destination country.
We pack with bubble wrap, corrugated boxes and stretch film. Furniture is dismantled where needed and wrapped. If an item needs special packing, ask us what is available.
It is not legally mandatory but is worth considering. Optional transit insurance is available on request, and the charge is listed in your written quote. Read the policy to see what it covers.
Shipping a car abroad usually needs an RTO NOC, valid insurance, and an import permit for the destination country. Customs duties apply at the destination and vary widely. Ask us whether we can handle it for your destination.
