Before you leave Estonia

  • Notify the population register — Register your new address abroad in the population register — online in a few minutes — so you are recorded as living outside Estonia.
  • e-Residency is not residence — If you hold Estonian e-Residency, it does not change: it is a digital identity, not a residence status.
  • Your Estonian-registered vehicle — Deregister the car for export with the Transport Administration, then register it in your new country.
  • Tax and health insurance — Inform the Tax and Customs Board of your departure, and check when your Health Insurance Fund cover ends.

Exporting your belongings from Estonia

To another EU country: if Estonia and your destination are both in the EU, your belongings travel freely. There is no export declaration and no customs clearance.

To a country outside the EU: we file the export declaration in Estonia on your behalf. What matters most is the import side: whether your belongings enter your new country free of duty depends on that country's rules. Each destination guide explains them.

Wherever you are going, prepare a detailed inventory of your belongings. It is required at destination for almost every move outside the EU, and it is the basis of your insurance.

For destinations outside the EU — the UK, Norway, Switzerland, North America — we file the Estonian export declaration. Sea containers usually leave from Muuga, near Tallinn.

How a move from Estonia works

  1. Free quote. Give us your departure address, your new home in Estonia and a rough volume. We send an online estimate right away and a written quote within a day.
  2. Survey and planning. We validate the volume with you, pick the transport mode and go through the customs rules that apply on this route to Estonia.
  3. Packing and collection. Our local team packs, inventories and loads your belongings at your home in Estonia.
  4. Transport. Your belongings travel by the mode that fits your route to Estonia: dedicated truck or shared load within Europe, sea container or air freight otherwise.
  5. Customs clearance (where required). We prepare the export declaration in Estonia and the import file for your destination (Estonian export declaration for non-EU destinations).
  6. Delivery and set-up. Final-mile delivery to your door; unpacking and reassembly are added when your quote includes them.

A single point of contact handles your move from Estonia from estimate to delivery.

How the price of your move from Estonia is calculated

Like every international mover, we build your price from Estonia from a few concrete factors:

  • Volume — the single biggest lever on the price, in m³. The online calculator walks you through it one room at a time.
  • Distance and route — the actual door-to-door distance to Estonia, not a bird-flight shortcut.
  • Transport mode — groupage, your own truck, shared or full container, air for urgent small shipments.
  • Services — everything beyond pure transport: packing, dismantling, crating, short-term storage, extra legs by ferry.
  • Access — floors without a lift, narrow streets, long carry distances or the need for an external lift.
  • Customs — clearance fees and port handling charges, where required by your route to Estonia.
  • Insurance — priced as a percentage of what you tell us your belongings are worth.

Typical volumes, as a guide:

HomeTypical volume
Studio10 to 15 m³
1-bedroom flat15 to 25 m³
2-bedroom home25 to 40 m³

For road moves inside Europe, the estimator returns a starting price in two minutes. Sea freight, air freight and any move that crosses a customs border go through a written quote, delivered within 24 hours.
