You get one matched mover for your route, not a list of removal companies to ring round. Stavanger is Norway's oil capital on the south-west coast, with close ties to the UK and Aberdeen.

📝 Getting your goods to Stavanger

Shipping your goods to Stavanger

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

Sea freight is a strong option for Stavanger, especially from the UK. The oil industry has built up regular North Sea links. Containers sail to the Stavanger area, which can be quick and simple for a UK move.

The road route runs through Sweden, over the Svinesund border, then down the west coast to Stavanger. It works well from mainland Europe. Groupage is the cheapest way to send a small load.

For a UK move, sea often wins. The mover weighs sea against road for your volume and your Stavanger address.

Either way, the mover arranges collection, the North Sea crossing or the drive, and delivery as one job. You deal with one team from your door to your new home.

Stavanger international movers: the area we cover

Stavanger movers: the area we cover

We cover all of Stavanger. That includes the centre, Hillevåg, Madla and Hundvåg, plus the twin city of Sandnes, Sola and Randaberg. The wider area is covered too.

Stavanger has a lot of international housing, from city flats to suburban homes. Many moves are work relocations. Tell the mover about your access and they plan the delivery.

Many homes in the Stavanger area are modern, built for families relocating with work. Access is usually good, with driveways and parking. Sandnes, right next door, is covered on the same run. Because the UK link is strong, groupage space from Britain fills regularly. Booking early helps you get the dates you want.

📄 Customs clearance for Stavanger

Customs clearance for Stavanger

International removals to Stavanger 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 Stavanger

Currency for your move to Stavanger

Norway uses the Norwegian krone (NOK), not the euro. It is one of the most expensive countries in Europe. A move to Stavanger 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.
  • Competitive exchange rates.
