Before you leave Lithuania
- Declare your departure — Declare your departure from Lithuania to your municipality — online or in person — so your residence record shows you live abroad.
- Your Lithuanian-registered vehicle — Deregister the car for export with Regitra, then register it in your new country.
- Tax, health and social insurance — Inform the State Tax Inspectorate (VMI) and Sodra of your departure, and check when your compulsory health insurance ends.
- Lease and utilities — Give notice as your lease requires and close energy, internet and phone accounts with final readings.
Exporting your belongings from Lithuania
To another EU country: if Lithuania 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 Lithuania 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 the UK, Norway, Switzerland and destinations outside Europe, we file the Lithuanian export declaration. Containers usually leave from Klaipėda.

How the price of your move from Lithuania is calculated
Your price from Lithuania is built from a handful of concrete variables, the same for every international mover:
- Volume — in cubic metres: it drives most of the price. Use our room-by-room calculator for an accurate figure.
- Distance and route — from your origin address to your new home in Lithuania.
- Transport mode — shared road load, a truck booked only for you, FCL or LCL by sea, or air for very small cargo.
- Services — everything beyond pure transport: packing, dismantling, crating, short-term storage, extra legs by ferry.
- Access — walk-up floors, pedestrian streets, long carries from the truck, and hoists where access is tight.
- Customs — clearance fees and port handling charges, where required by your route to Lithuania.
- Insurance — a small percentage of the declared value — scalable to what you want covered.
