Most Asked Questions

What’s the first thing to sort out before moving to India?

Your visa and local contact. India’s process can be paperwork-heavy, so having your documents and a local employer or sponsor lined up makes everything easier.

What’s the best way to ship household goods to India?

Sea freight is the most common (5–9 weeks), especially for full moves. Air freight is faster but typically used only for essentials due to cost.

Are customs in India complicated?

They can be. India has strict and sometimes detailed import rules, and duties may apply depending on your visa type and items. Proper documentation and a reliable mover are key.

Should I ship all my furniture?

Not always. Many expats bring personal items but buy furniture locally. It’s often more practical, especially since housing styles and sizes can vary a lot.

What’s the biggest challenge when relocating to India?

Adjusting to how things work, processes can be less predictable than in Europe. That applies to both logistics and daily life.

Are deliveries straightforward in Indian cities?

Not always. Traffic, narrow streets, and access to buildings can be challenging. Experienced movers will plan for this in advance.
