When you move overseas, there are many things you will need to learn.
There are many resources you can use to prepare for you new life overseas.
You can utilize the Internet, books or the experience from other expats and locals who are living in your new country.
IntlMOVE has put together some tips for things you should learn about before relocating abroad.
Culture Shock
Culture shock is inevitable.
Learn the warning signs for culture shock so you can pay special attention to yourself and your family members as you move through this adapting process.
When you do start to experience culture shock, be gentle to yourself and family members.
Make sure you get out of the house and stay in contact with people in order to adjust to your new surroundings easier.
Cultural Norms
Before you move overseas, you will want to learn about local laws, customs and etiquette.
It is also important for you to learn about religion and culture.
Religion and culture play significant roles in many countries and will greatly impact daily life and your job.
Read about cultural differences you will find on the Internet and in books before you move overseas.
Language
If you are moving to the Netherlands, Hong Kong or another area where most people speak English, you will have less of a problem than if you are moving to a country where very few people speak English.
However, you will still want to learn basic phrases and attempt to learn the language of your new country.
It will make life much easier at work and while out and about in your new city.
Even if you are moving to a country where English is the official language, you will still want to prepare for some major differences.
Each culture has different terminology and slang that is used in everyday conversations.
You will want to prepare for the differences even though you will likely pick up on the slang rather quickly once you move overseas.
Friends and Acquaintances
If you are moving to a new country where you do not know anybody, you might have friends with acquaintances in your new country.
Ask people in your social network to introduce you to any friends they have in your new country.
It will be very helpful to have a friend waiting for you as soon as you make your international move.
These new acquaintances can help you get adjusted to the new lifestyle that awaits you.
Respect Local Customs
When you move to a country that celebrates different holidays or has different spiritual practices, you must respect the differences.
You will be moving to a country with different norms and ideals and you have to abide by their social norms, even if they are completely unfamiliar to you.
Even if you don’t agree with religious beliefs or ethics that are part of a culture, you must learn to adapt and respect.
If you are ever unsure about how to act, you can watch locals or ask other people what is appropriate.
There will be a lot of things to learn for international moves.
The experience of moving overseas will make the learning curve worthwhile.
When you move overseas, you will make new friends, be well traveled and you will be able to live among a different culture.
You can try new foods and have new experiences that you would never be able to have if you did not move abroad.
When you are ready to move overseas with IntlMOVE, have fun learning all about a new culture.
International Moves and Packing
IntlMOVE offers all the services you need if you are shipping your household goods overseas for international moves.
IntlMOVE will pack, ship and deliver your household goods overseas.
If you need international moving insurance, IntlMOVE can also help you locate a reliable insurance agent to insure your household goods and personal effects.
Although IntlMOVE does offer packing services for your international move, some clients choose to pack their household goods on their own.
IntlMOVE has put together some tips that will help make your packing experience more successful.
Hazardous Materials
Most countries have very strict guidelines on what items are allowed to be transported overseas.
When you are making an international move, you will want to check with IntlMOVE and your country’s embassy to determine which items are prohibited.
You will not be allowed to ship any items that are liquid or flammable.
It is also unlikely that you will be able to ship any firearms overseas.
There are many resources online that you can check for a complete list of prohibited items.
Important Documents
Don’t ship any important documents with your international shipment.
You will want to transport these documents with you when you move overseas.
These documents include your passport, visa, birth certificates, school records, bank statements and other important financial and personal records.
Packing Heavy Items
When you are packing really heavy items, like books, it is best to pack them in small boxes.
Making boxes too heavy will slow down the IntlMOVE moving team and will also slow down the IntlMOVE delivery team in your new country.
By packing heavy items in small boxes, you will help ensure a more efficient international moving experience.
Furniture
If you are shipping furniture overseas, you will have to make sure that you disassemble all furniture that can be taken apart.
To stay organized, you will want to tape all furniture parts together so that you can easily reassemble the furniture when you arrive overseas.
If you have hired IntlMOVE to pack your household goods, the IntlMOVE packing team will disassemble beds and other furniture that needs to be taken apart.
Your items will be shipped by truck, by sea and then by truck again.
Your furniture will experience turbulence while being shipped overseas, but damage can be prevented.
You will want to wrap all furniture in cardboard, bubble wrap or take other protective measure to prevent any damage to your furniture.
Packing Fragile Items
When IntlMOVE packs fragile items, special care is given to the items to help ensure their safe arrival overseas.
You will have to take extra precautions when packing fragile items if you decide to pack items on your own.
Wrap all fragile items in bubble wrap or other protective enclosures.
You will also want to make sure that the boxes are lined with a two to four inch layer of crumpled paper on all sides of the box.
The crumpled paper will created a cushion for your fragile items when they experience any turbulence during the international shipment.
Sharp Objects
If you are shipping sharp kitchen knives or garden tools, you will want to wrap these items securely.
You can wrap the sharp edges in bubble wrap or other protective paper, which will help prevent any unnecessary injuries or damage to other items in the shipment.
Appliances
Before shipping appliances or other large electronics overseas, you will want to check the electrical requirements of your new country.
Most large electrical appliances will not work overseas, so make sure you can use these items before you ship them overseas.
IntlMOVE can pack household goods and personal effects for international moves.
IntlMOVE has helped many people move overseas, so IntlMOVE is very experienced in safely packing your personal belongings.

Moving overseas means you are about to embark on an adventure of a lifetime.
You will have new experiences and try a lot of new things.
You will also have to get used to a brand new routine.
IntlMOVE has put together a list of things to consider when getting into a new routine in your new country.
Work
Your new job overseas may have very different working hours than in your previous job in your home country.
You may work less and you may work more depending on where you move and your new job.
Daily meetings and new tasks at work can take some time to get used to, but be patient and soon enough you will get the hang of it.
School
Find out when your children will have vacation breaks, because they can vary greatly.
You might be used to a summer break and a winter break during the holidays, but you may not be moving to country that celebrates holidays you are used to celebrating.
For example, if you move to China, children are usually given long breaks during the Chinese New Year.
School days could also be longer or shorter, so you will need to coordinate transportation for your children according to their needs.
Children
If you are moving overseas with children, you will have to get used to their schedules.
In addition to their school schedule, you will have to get used to different sports and other activities.
You many have spent all of your weekends in the United States attending soccer games, but now you may have your weekends open!
Lunch Time
Some cultures value lunchtime as a time to spend with family.
They eat lunch as their biggest meal, rather than dinner.
Some cultures will take three hours off in the middle of the workday to enjoy lunch with their families and take a nap.
This can be difficult to get used to, but as the saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”
24-Hour Access
The United States has become a land of convenience.
You can basically find anything you want, whether it is doughnuts or gas for your car, at any time of the day or night.
This is not the case in most countries overseas.
Prepare yourself for markets that close by 6 p.m. or are not open at all during certain days of the week.
You may need to adjust your schedule so you can get the groceries and other things you need before the stores close.
Vacation Time
Most jobs in the United States will give you two to three weeks of vacation during the year.
Many different countries around the world are more liberal with time off because a happy employee means better business.
You might be given six weeks of vacation in some countries, so you will have more time to spend with your family, travel and you can also use the time to visit friends and family from your home country.
Some companies even encourage employees to take a month off at a time, which is almost unheard of in the United States business world.

International Ship and Port Facility Security Code
IntlMOVE is concerned with the safety of your household goods.
IntlMOVE is dedicated to our customers’ satisfaction, which is why we put forth great effort in managing every detail of your international shipment.
IntlMOVE wants your international move to be as safe, quick and as stress-free as possible.
Millions of containers are shipped worldwide to facilitate international trade and cargo shipments.
With ships coming and going from every direction, it is hard to imagine how customs officials keep track of what is being shipped.
There is no possible way to open every container to examine the contents.
The time and manpower this would take would make international shipments impossible.
Instead there are intricate programs, procedures and advanced equipment in place to manage the process.
There are also mobile gamma rays imaging devices that help customs officials view the items that are being imported and exported.
Counter-narcotic measures were put into place, which fueled the increase in security at U.S. ports.
If a shipment seems suspicious, it is flagged based on law enforcement intelligence and the contents of the container.
Stricter guidelines were outlined after September 11, 2001 to help combat terrorism.
United States importers are cooperating with U.S. customs officials to keep the borders safe.
Members of the international trade community have voluntarily partnered with United States officials in this endeavor.
Business and other carriers partnering with the officials are given expedited service at United States ports of entry in return.
The International Maritime Organization has taken the lead in implementing security measures worldwide.
There are numerous projects, proposals and improvements being implemented to continually increase the safety of international trading.
Electronic ship identification is something that has been put into place at more ports over the past 10 years which has not only sped up customs clearance, but it has also increased security measures.
In addition, port security plans are being improved and all ships must be equipped with a position indicating transponder.
The International Ship and Port Facility Security Code is a guide for minimum security requirements.
The code was put into place to keep international ports safe by identifying threats and taking precautionary measures against any threats or terrorism acts.
The International Maritime Organization states, “The International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS Code) is a comprehensive set of measures to enhance the security of ships and port facilities, developed in response to the perceived threats to ships and port facilities in the wake of the 9/11 attacks in the United States.”
There are two parts to the ISPS Code.
The first part outlines the mandatory requirements for security and the second part offers guidance for implementing the security measures that need to take place.
The ISPS Code is applied to cargo ships, passenger ships and mobile offshore drilling units.
The safety and efficiency of international trade and cargo shipments has greatly increased in recent years.
Ships are required to have specific security measures in place.
The level of security is determined by the size and content of the ship.
Ships must have security plans, security officers and certain onboard equipment to help manage the international safety of trade, passenger and cargo shipments.
Port facilities are required to provide security plans, security officers and technologically advanced security equipment.
Both ships and port facilities must also have equipment that monitors and controls access.
They must also have equipment that monitors and controls the activities of the people and cargo.
Security communications must be readily available in order to keep track of the ship and port security.

New Home Overseas
First of all, congratulations, you are moving across the world!
IntlMOVE (www.intlmove.com) is a reliable, cost efficient and well-known industry leader in the international moving business.
IntlMOVE specializes in international moves, so you know your household goods and personal effects are in good hands.
After all of your personal belongings have been shipped overseas, you will be ready to get settled into your new home.
IntlMOVE has the experience you need to safely move your entire household overseas, which can even include your car!
Even if you think you have shipped everything you need overseas, there will likely still be odds and ends that you need to purchase.
IntlMOVE has put together a checklist that will help you make sure you have all the details covered.
- Furnished or Unfurnished
If you are moving into a fully furnished apartment, find out if there are items you will need that are not included.
If you are renting or buying an unfurnished home, be clear about what unfurnished means in your apartment.
There may be hookups for a washer and dryer, but these appliances may not come with the apartment.
In some countries, unfurnished apartments don’t even come with kitchen appliances or cabinets.
Unfurnished can mean completely unfurnished and you might have to purchase items you were not planning on buying.
Check with your landlord or realtor to determine exactly what items stay with the house when you move in.
- Household Goods
You may have left a lot of items behind in your move that you planned on buying upon your arrival in your new country.
Keep a list of these items so you can purchase them all in one shopping trip.
For example, you probably left your shower curtain liner and kitchen sponges behind.
Your electronics most likely will not work in your new country, but this should be researched before you move.
Small items like curling irons and laptops will not be a problem because you can get voltage converters.
Larger items like televisions and refrigerators may not work at all in your new country.
If you cannot bring these items overseas, add them to your moving budget.
- Furniture
IntlMOVE can also ship your furniture overseas.
You have spent years acquiring furniture that you like, so don’t leave these treasures behind!
Determine how much space you will have in your new home before you ship your entire household overseas.
If you are moving into a smaller home, there may not be room for all of your personal belongings.
You might even be moving into a bigger home.
In that case, you will need to purchase more furniture upon your arrival.
Make sure you add these expenses to your budget.
- Utilities, Phone and Internet
When you are renting a new home, you will have to set up electricity, water and gas if these utilities are not already included with the rental.
If you would also like to have a landline and internet, these will also need to be set-up.
Some apartments or homes may already include some of these services, so ask questions.
- Food
When it comes to shipping food overseas, you are better off leaving it back home.
Most countries will not allow you to bring food across the border.
When you first arrive in your new country, you will need to repurchase everything.
The first shopping trip can be expensive because you will need to purchase spices, cooking oil, baking supplies and all the other food that your family eats.
- Cleaning Products
Obviously at some point you will need to clean your house.
Because of their toxic nature, you will have to purchase cleaning products.
Shipping flammable liquids and toxic substances overseas is not allowed.
These items will not clear customs.
Luckily, cleaning products are inexpensive so they can be purchased when you arrive in your new country.
Even if you are moving into a furnished apartment, you will likely need to purchase these items.
- Moving File
Keep track of all of your receipts and moving expenses in one place.
This will come in handy for tax reasons and when you need proof you have already paid for something.
Tips to Hire an International Mover
If you are moving overseas to pursue another career, study abroad, retire or any for any other reason IntlMOVE is your best choice for shipping your household goods.
Everyone likes to be surrounded by their own belongings. There are a few ways to bring your beloved items with you.
One of these ways is to bring them with you in your luggage when you fly to your destination country.
Tthere are limitations to the items that you can bring with you in this manner.
Moving your belonging can be an overwhelming task but not when you hire IntlMOVE to ship your personal effects overseas. They will handle the tasks of packing, picking up, transporting, shipping filing appropriate paperwork and delivering your belongings overseas.
There are a lot of international moving companies out there and not all are equal in quality of service nor have the ability to get the task done right.
How would you choose the best international mover?
The first tip when hiring an international moving company is to check whether they have the legal license to ship your belongings overseas.
Some moving companies do not have the proper license required to move your belongings overseas.
If you choose one of these companies, when something goes wrong, you will have no recourse and worse yet, may never see your personal belongings. To see if they are a legitimate international moving company, you should check out their license.
The next tip is to compare prices with other moving companies.
Make sure you are comparing apples to apples.
Are they offering the exact same service?
Are they offering a quote based on the same volume?
What are the normal costs involved in an international move?
By gathering price information from the market, you will be able to save and plan your budget ahead of time.
Don’t wait until the last minute to place your order.
There is a lot of paperwork and scheduling that goes into planning an international move.
The price quoted is based on the volume of your shipment.
You can estimate your volume easily yourself.
IntlMOVE can provide the tools and assistance for you to determine the volume of your shipment.
How does this moving company handle unexpected problems?
Are they responsive to your questions?
Do they answer you promptly?
Do they advise you promptly if there are any additional costs incurred on the day of pick up?
Maybe you didn’t pack everything and needed them to pack some items for you.
Maybe you added some items at the last minute and this may cause an increase in your shipment’s volume. How will the international moving company keep you informed of the status of your shipment?
Email is one of the best, most effective forms of communication today.
This form of communication between you and the international mover who is handling your shipment is easy, inexpensive and quick.
Ask your international moving company about insurance.
Insurance can provide you peace of mind.
Insurance cost is generally calculated as percentage times your declared value.
You assign a realistic, replacement value to the items in your shipment.
Relocating to another country is no trouble, if you let a professional international moving company take care of all of the details of moving your personal belongings from your home to your new home in your new destination country with care and professionalism.

I first fell in love with France after watching Jacques Cousteau’s underwater adventures.
I immediately wanted to join his expeditions and travel onboard the Calypso.
The films and photographs by Mr. Cousteau of that magical under water world were and are spectacular.
My second love affair with France came with the discovery of Brie cheese.
Did you know that there are over 400 cheeses from France?
Brie, from the French Province of Brie which is located about 60 miles from Paris, is one of the most popular.
France is a country of history and great beauty.
Paris is the culture capital with the Louvre and Eiffel Tower.
The history includes WWI memorial and WWII landing beaches.
The beauty includes grand churches and cathedrals, vineyards, rolling hills and meadows, mountains, miles of coastline with sandy beaches, imposing cliffs and quaint villages with cobblestone streets.
Food is a passion for the French and it varies by region and is influenced by what is grown locally which means the cuisine is always fresh and flavorful.
Family values are important to the French and the extended family provides both emotional and financial support. The French take the responsibility of parenting very seriously.
Every country has its customs and culture and France is no exception.
In my opinion, these should be worldwide customs.
Public and private relationships have different rules.
Friendship involves frequent if not daily contact.
A handshake is the common form of greeting; kissing on the cheek is reserved for friends.
First names are used by friends and family; wait until you are invited to use someone’s first name.
When you are introduced to or greet someone on the street or in a shop, say good morning or good afternoon Sir or Madame; anything less is considered rude.
Punctuality is important. If you make an appointment or are invited to dinner, arrive on time. If you are going to be more than 10 minutes late, a phone call and explanation are expected.
Avoid Moving Mistakes
International Moving Mistakes
Moving internationally requires a lot more planning than domestic moves, so it is important to be aware of common mistakes that can end up causing a lot of frustration.
There are new rules, new customs and new culture and it will take time to get acclimated.
Here are some common mistakes and tips on how to avoid them.
1. Hiring an Inexperienced International Moving Company
Many companies claim they have the expertise to handle international moves, but not all companies can follow through with their promises.
IntlMOVE has the expertise, licensure and international network to help make your international move a success.
Your international moving company should be able to help you with packing, shipping, normal customs clearance and moving insurance.
IntlMOVE invites all potential and current customers to check out its offices and warehouse to see the level of care that goes into shipping your furniture and household goods.
A good international moving company will do everything possible to earn your trust.
Find out how many international moves your moving company handles so you can determine their level of commitment and experience.
You should also make sure that your company is licensed by the Federal Maritime Commission, which is an independent regulatory agency that monitors activities of ocean common carriers, marine terminal operators, conferences, ports and ocean transportation intermediaries which operate in the U.S. foreign commerce.
The Federal Maritime Commission can help you find a trustworthy international moving company.
2. Being Unorganized and Mismanaging Time
Make sure to start planning your move as soon as you become aware that you will be relocating.
Allowing ample time for preparation and planning will help reduce unnecessary rush costs and rushed paperwork.
Allow enough time to plan and your move will be a much easier process.
You may want to put some items in storage and move the rest of your belongings overseas.
Determine which items will be moved and which items need to be placed in storage. Separate these items so they do not end up in the wrong location.
Once your items are packed, it will be a minimum of a few weeks before your household items are back in your possession, so make sure you are aware of exactly what is being packed.
Clearing customs can add extra days or weeks to the moving process, so take all items you might need with you.
Rushed moves leave room for mistakes, so make sure you keep all medicine, airline tickets, visas, passports and other important documentation with you because these items are not easily replaced.
Items like jewelry or family heirlooms should also be carried with you.
When the movers are packing up your household goods, put these important items in a designated area, or a neighbor’s house, so they are not accidentally packed.
You should never plan to leave the same day that your household is being loaded onto the truck.
There can be weather delays and other unforeseen circumstances that can cause havoc if nobody is at your residence to guide the movers.
Even though your moving company can only give you an estimated delivery schedule, they should be able to help guide you in your plans.
Delays in travel can cause extra unexpected expenses.
If your shipment arrives at the destination port before you are ready to receive it, you could accumulate additional port storage fees.
Although your moving company can never guarantee an exact date of arrival, they should be able to help you determine an approximate time of arrival.
Customs clearance, weather and other unforeseen circumstances are out of a moving company’s control, but constant communication is key to a successful overseas move.
3. Being Unaware of Not Following New Rules
IntlMOVE can help prepare you for the new rules and customs regulations in your new destination.
Each country has specific immigration and customs requirements that can be frustrating if you are unaware of the processes that are put into place.
There are many forms and documents that need to be filled out in order to clear customs.
IntlMOVE has a firm understanding of the normal customs clearing procedure.
Some countries will not allow plants or firearms, but some countries will allow these items with proper licenses.
IntlMOVE, along with your new country’s embassy and consulate, should be able to help you determine what you can bring to your new location.
Make sure these items are not mixed in with your other belongings when the movers are packing up your house to avoid any delays at customs.
If you are planning on relocating your pets, be aware that there is documentation, medical history records and possible quarantine times that need to be taken into consideration.
There are services that can help move your pets and prepare the paperwork involved.
Moving pets across borders is much more difficult than moving them domestically.
4. Miscommunication
IntlMOVE communicates by email, so you always have a record of all correspondence that takes place.
Make sure that your international moving company can remain in touch with you during the moving process to avoid any unnecessary delays.
Make sure you are using an email address that be accessed worldwide from any computer.
You may also want to provide an alternate person to speak with in case you are unavailable or in transit to your new location.
