Property Resettlement

Resettlement property - how we help you move smoothly from outside the EU

Resettlement property is personal items that you carry with you when you move from abroad to Poland or another EU country. The customs procedure related to resettlement property allows you to be exempt from customs duties and taxes if you meet certain conditions.
Such briefings include:
Cars, motorbikes or other means of personal transport.
Home furnishings (furniture, household appliances and white goods).
Personal items (clothes, books, sports equipment).
