📝 Getting your goods to Tønsberg

Shipping your goods to Tønsberg

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

Tønsberg is reached via the Oslo route. The road runs through Sweden, over the Svinesund border, past Oslo, and down the west side of the fjord. Then a short leg brings the goods into Tønsberg.

Sea freight to the harbour is another option for larger loads. Tønsberg has a working port on the fjord. For some moves this can be good value.

Groupage is the cheapest way to move a small load. The route runs through Oslo, so departures are frequent. The mover plans the delivery around your address.

Tønsberg international movers: the area we cover

Tønsberg movers: the area we cover

We cover all of Tønsberg. That includes the historic centre, the harbour area, and the suburbs. Nearby Nøtterøy and the islands are covered too.

Tønsberg is a busy summer and boating town. The waterfront fills up in the warmer months. The mover plans around the season where it affects parking and access.

The Slottsfjellet tower stands over the town, on the site of an old fortress. Below it, the streets mix old timber houses with newer homes. Access in most of the town is good.

Housing ranges from harbour-side flats to suburban houses. Wherever you are, one matched mover delivers to the door. Tell them about access when they call. The mover sends the right vehicle for your home.

Tønsberg has a lively waterfront, Brygga, lined with cafes and restaurants. For a move, the practical point is summer parking near the water. The mover plans the loading spot ahead, so the day runs smoothly.

📄 Customs clearance for Tønsberg

Customs clearance for Tønsberg

International removals to Tønsberg 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 Tønsberg

Currency for your move to Tønsberg

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