Documents necessary to move to Greece:
As a result of Brexit, moves from the UK to the EU (and vice versa) require completing the Transfer of Residence procedure in order to avoid paying import VAT (24% of the total value) on property transferred to Greece.
Documents we will need from you before collecting your property in order to obtain Transfer of Residence status:
• Copy of ID card or passport;
• A certificate issued by the local government in Greece confirming your place of residence, or if the EU customs agent agrees, then you only need to present a document confirming that you are an EU resident or intend to become one;
• A detailed bill of lading with the value, size and weight of each item listed;
• UK Certificate of Residence https://www.gov.uk/guidance/get-a-certificate-of-residence or other proof that you have lived in the UK for at least the last 12 months (e.g. council tax bills for 12 months or bank statements containing address);
• A declaration to the customs authorities that you have used the household items at your usual place of residence in the UK for more than six months and that you will not sell, rent or pawn them once you receive them in your new place, and that you intend to remain an EU resident for at least one year.
• Signed authorization for the customs clearance agent to act on your behalf.
Print and sign all required documents and have them ready for the driver before collecting your property and, for safety, also send them electronically.
Another important document is the CMR form, which our driver will provide you to complete on the day of the move.
To speed up this process, you can contact your local customs office in Greece.
You can find out more information about bringing personal belongings to Greece directly from the government websites.
