Removals to Czechia

Your Gateway to the Heart of Central Europe

Czechia (the Czech Republic) is a top destination for those seeking a high standard of living, a rich cultural heritage, and a thriving economic landscape. Whether you are relocating to the “City of a Hundred Spires,” Prague, the tech hubs of Brno, or the industrial center of Ostrava, moving to Czechia in 2026 is an ambitious and rewarding step.

However, an international move of over 800 miles across multiple borders requires more than just a van. In the 2026 landscape, removals to Czechia involve navigating the “Smart Border” systems of the EU and specific Czech customs protocols. At Pask’s Removals, we specialize in “Making Moving Easy.” We handle the complex logistics and paperwork so you can focus on your new life in the heart of Europe.

Navigating Czech Customs in 2026

Since the UK’s transition to “third-country” status, importing household goods into Czechia requires specific documentation to avoid the standard 21% Czech VAT. To import your belongings duty-free, you must apply for Transfer of Residence (ToR).

Duty-Free Requirements

The Czech Customs Authority (Celní správa) typically grants duty-free entry if you meet the following:

  • 12-Month UK Residency: Proof that you have lived outside the EU for at least the last 12 months (Utility bills, bank statements, or Council Tax).

  • 6-Month Ownership: Proof that you have owned and used your items for at least six months prior to the move.

  • Proof of Czech Residency: A copy of your Czech residence permit, a signed employment contract, or a verified lease agreement (Nájemní smlouva).

  • Power of Attorney: If you aren’t traveling in the van with us, you must provide a signed authorization for our team to represent you at the customs office.

2026 Digital Update: Czechia launched a fully digital immigration and customs portal in early 2026. Our move managers will help you navigate this new “Foreigner Account” system, ensuring your inventory and declarations are uploaded correctly to prevent border delays.

Living in Czechia: 2026 Tips for Newcomers

The “Datová schránka” (Data Box) In 2026, many administrative tasks in Czechia are handled via a “Data Box”—a secure electronic mailbox. We recommend setting this up shortly after your arrival to receive official communications from the government and tax offices.

The “Rodné Číslo” (Birth Number) This is your unique personal identification number in Czechia. You will need it for everything from long-term health insurance to getting a mobile phone contract. The application process can take a few months, so start it as soon as your residence permit is granted.

Sunday Quiet Hours Like many of its neighbors, Czechia values quiet time. While not always a strict law, it is common courtesy to avoid loud DIY work or moving heavy furniture on Sundays. It’s the perfect time to visit a local hospoda (pub) for a world-class Czech lager!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a visa to move my furniture?

To import your items duty-free, you must show proof of a “transfer of residence.” While UK citizens can enter as tourists for 90 days, the tax-exempt status of your furniture depends on having a long-term visa or residence permit.

Can you move my car to Czechia?

Yes. However, cars must be older than 6 months to avoid heavy duties. You will also need to register the vehicle with the Czech Ministry of Transport and ensure it passes a technical inspection (STK).

Is my move insured?

Absolutely. Every move includes comprehensive Goods in Transit and Public Liability insurance. For international relocations, we offer enhanced Marine Transit insurance for total peace of mind during the crossing.
