Are you going to shift abroad? Congratulations!

If you are planning to shift completely abroad, then you must know that it is not as simple as domestic moving. In domestic shifting you can pack everything into the boxes and hire a transport to shift your belongings. When it comes to international relocation you can’t take all your things to the other side. You are restricted to take certain items by law.

These restrictions are imposed due to security and economic reasons that can be based on future predictions or past events. This way the country you are shifting to, makes sure that it is safe you as well as the country. These restrictions can vary from country to country but there are certain items that are common to all.

·         Biological imports

You need to have an import permit to shift any kind of organisms for research and education purpose. If you don’t have a permit most countries do not allow biological imports. If you are traveling and relocating for a research purposes, then make sure you get your documents ready before you shift.

·         Explosives and firearms

Foreigners are high scrutiny and for good security reasons. Various countries are not very welcoming to the foreigners and weapons are viewed doubtfully. Hence, you can’t carry weapons to the other side. However, there are some of the varieties of firearms that are strictly not allowed without appropriate custom procedures.

·         Money

Many countries have allotted certain amount of currency that can be carried by a person shifting to that country. Like for example if you are relocating to USA then a person can’t bring more than $10,000. You may have to file a 4790 form with customs in USA.

·         Pirated copies of copyright material

Before you pack your music CDs, books or other multi-media, make sure you have their original copies. As shipping off pirated copies is a common and dangerous practice to sell them off at a very low cost. Countries like USA follow strict custom search in these conditions.

·         Agricultural items

If you are thinking of shipping any plant seeds or plants under civilian shipment, then think again. Most of the plants are not allowed to be taken to foreign countries. Exceptions are made but only if you can provide a valid explanation. For that you will have to hire the best packers and movers who are capable of international shifting.

·         Persian rug

Most of the countries don’t allow Persian rugs to be carried in or out of the country. It can be only done if you have bought it from that country itself. If you have a good packers and movers shipping your things off, they can tell you all the rules and regulations so that, you don’t have to face much problem during the shift.

Final Word

Apart from the above-mentioned items there are drugs and specific medicines that are not allowed inside some of the countries. You may need an expert who is aware of all the rules of the country you are going to transfer. Hazardous material, poisonous chemicals, liquor, narcotics, and pornographic materials are also prohibited in some of the countries.

It is so sad that all things have changed with this pandemic thing and I hope to get through this difficult period as soon as possible. For me personally it is very difficult because I am an extroverted person who always loves to socialize and travel to the fullest. I like to see new cultures and get to know different people because that's how I develop as a personality. I am very inspired by Indian culture and for this reason, as soon as the pandemic ends, I will go to India for a while. I searched for the cost of living there from https://costoflivingreports.com/india/ and it attracted me enormously.
