So we are all but 9 months into Brexit, and in that time here at ERS we have carried on making peoples dream moves to Spain come true
And yes while things have changed since Brexit it has not made that dream move to Spain (or France or other EU countries ) impossible or out of your reach. Yes it has made that same move more expensive than Pre Brexit So I thought I would go though in a bit more detail on how things have changed (We have in other blogs on this website covered various aspects of this like the Customs process ) Firstly yes you will have likely heard and know that there is now various customs process and rules that are now in place that, firstly yes there is now more paperwork needed for the customs process to export and import your goods to and From Spain (and costs of Customs brokers) here at ERS we have as part of our service this extra customs process and paper work covered , all you need to do is send the requested documents we ask for: Yes there might be customs duties and Iva/vat (depending on which country Vat in the UK / Iva in Spain / Vat in France ) at import and to be on the safe side we treat it as there is (which we explain in more detail when in the quote stage of a move ) And there is Customs broker fees , which we tell you what they are but that is in our case paid as part of your overall moving cost So yes it now is a tad more expensive to move to Spain/France since Brexit And yes there are also new rules about living there as well (best on that to speak to an expert on relevant immigration law) But let me reassure you off the following: Yes the customs process is more involved but ERS has you covered we handle all the customs processes involved in your move and no it has not become impossible to relocate to Spain from Britain since Brexit we have this year successfully completed numerous trips moving people to Spain from the UK so no Brexit has not made your dream move to Spain impossible Moving to Spain is still achievable Well the simple answer is well
Two trips booked and two trips done successfully The detailed version for those who want to know So as you may have seen that since the 1st January 2021 we have here at European relocation services (ERS Removal Services ltd) have completed 2 fully successful Trips between Spain and the UK (that works out to 2 imports into the UK (Trip one (Trip two was empty to the UK) and 5 imports into Spain (Trip one had 4 customers , trip two had one customer as it was full van load ) And on trip two when the van checked in at Newhaven port with DFDS he was told he would be one of only a few freight units (in our case van) on the ferry as out of the 50 booked only us and 11 others had the correct customs paperwork (and sorting the customs paperwork is something we do as part of your move) and from what he could work out we where the only removals vehicle on board (As the Ferry companies can not let you on the ferry without the right paperwork by law) |
