Preparing for Your Move to Asia
Preparing for your move from Australia to Asia requires careful planning and plenty of time. We recommend notifying Overseas Packers & Shippers three to six months before your intended moving date to ensure a smooth and well-coordinated relocation. This advance notice allows us to manage all aspects of your move effectively.
One of the first steps you should take is applying for your visa to your destination country, as visa processing times can vary and may experience delays. Having a valid visa in place is essential, and it’s a good idea to begin this process before reaching out to us.
Another crucial part of your preparation is completing the customs forms for the items you’ll be bringing into Asia. Overseas Packers & Shippers can guide you through this process, ensuring your forms are completed accurately and reviewed by our partners in your destination country.
While we offer assistance, it’s important to note that the responsibility for submitting accurate customs forms lies with you. Properly completing this step is critical to avoiding delays or complications when your belongings arrive in Asia.
Our expert team at Overseas Packers & Shippers will handle all your packing, ensuring your items are securely packed according to international standards. By leaving the packing to us, you can feel confident that your possessions will arrive at your new home safe and sound.
