📝 Getting your goods to Askøy

Shipping your goods to Askøy

A removal van and man, the local removal service, does not suit a move this far. A European removal to Askøy goes by container, groupage or sea freight. Our international removal services cover packing, transport and customs.

Askøy shares Bergen's routes, because it sits right next to the city. Sea freight to Bergen, a busy west-coast port, is often a good choice. From there the goods cross the Askøy Bridge to the island.

The road route runs through Sweden, over the Svinesund border, then a long way west to Bergen. From Bergen it is a short hop across the bridge. The drive across the country is longer than to Oslo.

Groupage is the cheapest way to move a small load. The bridge is the single link to the island, so the mover plans the final leg around it. They deliver to your address on Askøy.

Askøy international movers: the area we cover

Askøy movers: the area we cover

We cover all of Askøy. That includes Kleppestø, the main centre by the ferry, plus the housing areas spread across the island. The smaller settlements are covered too.

Askøy is mostly residential, with many people who work in Bergen. A lot of the housing is modern, with driveways and parking. Access in most of the island is good.

The island roads can be winding, and the bridge is the main link to Bergen. The mover plans the route across the bridge and around the island.

Housing ranges from modern estates to homes by the water. Wherever you are on Askøy, one matched mover delivers to the door. Tell them about access when they call. The mover sends the right vehicle.

Many people on Askøy work in Bergen and travel across the bridge each day. For a move, that closeness means the mover can run the delivery alongside Bergen jobs. They plan the bridge crossing and the island roads.

📄 Customs clearance for Askøy

Customs clearance for Askøy

International removals to Askøy need customs clearance, like anywhere in Norway. Norway is in the EEA but outside the EU customs union. So your goods are declared to Tolletaten, the Norwegian customs service, when they arrive.

Most people moving for good pay no duty or VAT. That is thanks to Transfer of Residence relief. You must have lived outside Norway for at least 12 months. You must have owned and used the goods during that time. And you must import them within one year of the move.

Norwegian VAT (MVA) is 25%, so the relief saves a lot. To declare your goods you need a Norwegian ID number. That is a D-number or a personnummer. The matched mover prepares the declaration for you.

Transfer of Residence: main rules
  • Lived outside Norway for at least 12 months.
  • Settling in Norway for good.
  • Owned and used the goods while abroad.
  • Imported within one year of the move.
  • Goods are for your own use.

Customs facts checked against Tolletaten (toll.no). Rules can change, so check before you move.

💰 Currency for your move to Askøy

Currency for your move to Askøy

Norway uses the Norwegian krone (NOK), not the euro. It is one of the most expensive countries in Europe. A move to Askøy often means sending money over. That might be for a deposit, rent or a home.

  • Experts in currency exchange for international moves.
  • No hidden fees on your transfers.
  • Five-star consumer ratings.
