International Moves and Their Reasons – Why People Leave Switzerland
As a moving company, we have been based in Switzerland for years and are familiar with the various factors that lead to a move to European countries. Here are some of the main reasons:
- You are starting a business in Germany or another EU country.
- Personal reasons are driving you abroad.
- Students are completing their semester abroad far from home.
- Professional reasons are taking you to Germany and other countries.
- Love is leading to a move to a neighboring country.
Regardless of your reasons, we are your moving partner from start to finish. As an experienced moving company, we will provide you with a tailored quote that meets your needs.
Our Service Concept – Managing International Moves Smartly
For a successful international move, expertise is required. Many moving companies only operate locally and exclude crossing borders during the move. We have chosen to offer moves within Switzerland as well as to other European countries. As a strong partner, we have the necessary knowledge and experience to deal with country-specific peculiarities in the destination country.
Planning Your International Move – with Limmat
When moving within Switzerland, only a fraction of the challenges you face during a move to Austria, Italy, France, Germany, or another country arises. However, moving overseas poses even greater challenges. It starts with customs clearance and ends with specific entry requirements in the destination country. As experts, we not only know how to pack belongings securely but also offer you all relevant services for the international move to neighboring countries and beyond.
Obtaining All Documents – What You Need for the Move
We want to support our clients optimally and provide valuable tips for obtaining all documents. While we cannot take care of these documents for you, our extensive services greatly facilitate your move. Here’s an overview of the documents you need to consider:
- A valid passport for entry into the destination country.
- Depending on the country, the required residence permit.
- A valid work permit to take up a job.
- Proof of deregistration in Switzerland.
- International driver’s license to remain mobile.
- Tax documents for registration with the new tax office.
- Valid health insurance from day 1 in your new home.
Many of our clients prepare these documents before the move. If you have any questions, feel free to ask us during the initial contact.
