Removals to France

Moving After Brexit? Documents You Will Need to Move to France

The Documents You Need to Provide for Us to Pick Up Your Goods:

A clear copy of your ID card or Passport

To certify residency in France, a certificate from the local council is required. Alternatively, if approved by the EU customs agent, you may be able to provide a document confirming your status as an EU resident or your intention to become one. For instance:

• If you reside with your family in the EU, please have them complete and sign this template and submit a copy of their personal ID along with a utility bill displaying the address.
• If you are employed in the EU, please present your EU employment contract.
• If you have established living arrangements in the EU, please supply a utility bill in your name and address, your tenancy agreement, or the property ownership deed.

A packing list with your signature, including each item's value, size and weight. Make sure to use all fields in the MuveOne Insurance Form.

A self-certificate (please use this template) to declare that you have owned and used the household items in your UK residence for more than six months, will not sell, rent or pledge them after moving to your new place, and intend to stay as an EU resident for at least one year.

A UK certificate of residence or other evidence to show that you have lived in the UK for 12 months (e.g. 12 months of bank statements or council tax bills with your address).

A signed authorisation for the customs clearance agent to act on your behalf. You will receive a blank form from MuveOne after you confirm your booking.

How Quickly Can You Arrive in France?

You’ll be surprised by how fast the journey is. Once our driver has loaded your items, he’ll drive directly to your new home. The average travel time from the UK to France is just half a day, so you can enjoy a crisp croissant on your sofa before you know it.

Just a heads up, if you’re moving from Scotland or Wales, it might take up to 48 hours to get to France. Also, if you’re not filling up the whole removal vehicle (Less than 15 cubic metres), your delivery could take up to 5 days.

How to Pack for Your Move to France

Moving to a new country can be exciting, but also stressful. You want to make sure that your belongings arrive safely and securely at your new destination. That’s why it’s important to plan ahead and pack properly. Here are some tips to help you prepare for your move to France from the UK.

Use suitcases or boxes to pack loose items. This will make it easier to load and unload your possessions, and prevent them from getting damaged or lost during transit. Label each suitcase or box with your name, destination address and contact details.

Protect your furniture with padding or covers. Furniture can get scratched, dented or broken during the move. To avoid this, wrap your furniture with bubble wrap, blankets, towels or sheets. You can also use furniture covers or slipcovers to protect the upholstery and cushions.
