Moving within the EU: how it works, with no customs at all
Here's how a move between two EU countries works: what we handle, what you supply, and why these routes have no customs clearance at all. One van, door to door, and a plan built around your dates.
No customs clearance on these routes: both ends of your move are inside the EU.
Both ends of this move are in the EU
A valid passport copy for each person moving. That's the identity side done: there is no customs declaration to complete on this route.
A finalised list of what you're moving, due 3 calendar days before your collection window. We send you the file to fill in, and it doubles as your insurance inventory.
Both ends of this move are in the EU, so nothing is lodged, and nothing waits at a border.
Passport and an inventory of what you're moving are all that's needed.
None: both ends of this move are in the EU, so there's no clearance, no border documents, and nothing to lodge. Your passport and your finalised inventory are all that's needed.
Yes: our cubic-metre calculator. Add your items and it totals the volume against the van sizes. Photos of anything awkward help too, and we'll gauge it with you.
3 calendar days before your collection window. It's the one deadline on this route, and it's on your booking confirmation.
This route, in facts
Every move inside the EU has the same customs answer: none. Weight allowances still depend on the two countries you’re moving between, so the figures below are for Italy to Spain, and your quote confirms them for your exact route.
* 5–10m³ travels consolidated with other moves, so its range is widest.
Door-to-door on this route, in either direction: a named vetted partner at each end, from the same European partner network that backs every MuveOne move. Every delivery estimate is a range, widest on the smaller loads (5–10m³), which travel consolidated with other moves. We'd rather tell you that now than surprise you later.
Example figures for Florence to Valencia, from our routing and weight tools. Your quote confirms them for your exact addresses.
The weight caps above are enforced limits, not guidance. If packing takes you past yours, telling us early costs the locked-price difference for the bigger size, not an emergency on the day.
