With a world more connected than ever before, your next job, degree, or life experience can be far away from home.

Our expert teams of relocation movers have put together their best suggestions for how to make your international move stress-free.

  • Get in touch with the consulate. One of the reasons why overseas moving can be stressful is not being prepared with the legal, identity, and transit documents you’ll need to move yourself and your household. Reaching out to the foreign consulate can help you avoid that pitfall. The consulate is well-versed in the particular documents, permits, visas, and other records you’ll need to enter and inhabit your new country, and they can guide you through preparing the right documentation for your move.
  • Get your papers in order. Aside from the visas and permits you’ll need to make your move, you should also prepare your own documents to be moved. There are documents you should have with you at all times (your identity documents, like a passport, and your travel documents), documents that should be close at hand if needed (financial documents, real estate documents), and documents that you’ll want to make sure are packed safely away for the move. Make a plan for all three types of documents.
  • Make your travel plans. As you strategize about how to travel and how any members of your household might travel, consider the timeline your household items will be moved on, and what you’ll need to pack with you in order to stay comfortable. How you pack your luggage will also make a big difference when it comes to getting through customs and immigration. You should have with you at all times during your transit your identity documents, travel documents, and any daily essentials like medication, toiletries, and a change of clothes.
  • Make your pet’s travel plans. Depending on where you’re moving, you’ll face different regulations around how and when your pet can travel and enter your new country. There are likely licenses or permits you’ll need to obtain (you can ask the consulate!), and you may need to provide proof of ownership or proof of vaccination. Some countries also enforce a quarantine period for any animals entering the country, which you’ll need to take into account when making your travel plans.

Of course, the best way to make your next big move less stressful is to use the comprehensive packing, moving, and storage services from Beltmann’s teams of relocation movers.
