Put the belongings at the centre of the plan
Keep the item list and the packing plan together.
Sending belongings or planning a household move to Curaçao? Start with the pieces you want to take, then tell us what needs packing and where the goods should finish. Our team handles the survey and manages the job, with the work agreed around your belongings.
Make the list useful
A room list helps you see what is going. A few practical details beside each item help the team understand what needs preparing and handling.
Curaçao Customs discusses goods that look new and possible evidence of earlier ownership. Describe the actual item and ask which current evidence applies to your circumstances.
Keep any purchase or ownership records available for the responsible authority or appointed agent when requested. Do not put identity papers, receipts or private documents in the ordinary enquiry.
Build your household inventoryPrepare the pieces you have described
Show the team delicate furniture, loose glass, large pieces and anything difficult to carry. Explain where packing is needed and what access is like at collection.
Our full-service moves include professional international packing, furniture dismantling and reassembly, with the work set out for your belongings. Our international packing specialists have over 20 years of experience.
Keep the item list beside the packing discussion. The proposed route, receiving address and work need to be checked together before the job is agreed.
Keep one version of the plan
Separate the belongings included in this shipment from anything you are still considering. If you add furniture, buy something new or change the receiving address, update the team before the work is agreed.
The packing and receiving plan should describe the list you actually intend to send. A change in the pieces or access may also change the work and quotation.
Keep the decision with Customs
The authority's moving guidance explains that household goods and an exemption request have conditions. Sending a shipping enquiry or completing an inventory does not decide tax treatment.
Use the official information to identify questions about the belongings and any ownership evidence. Confirm the current procedure with Customs or your appointed agent before relying on a particular exemption.

Before the list becomes the job
Name the furniture and package types, add quantities and give approximate measurements where known. Mark delicate parts and anything needing packing help. You can explain what remains undecided without inventing dimensions.
Describe its actual condition and history accurately. Curaçao Customs says ownership evidence may be requested for new-looking goods. Ask which current evidence is relevant; this page does not decide the item's treatment.
Yes. Show the pieces during the survey and discuss the protection and handling needed. Full-service moves include international packing, dismantling and reassembly, with the work agreed in the quotation. Packing-only conditions need a separate check.
Tell the team about the whole plan before agreeing separate shipments. Identify which items would follow and ask the responsible authority or agent to check the applicable current procedure.
Our established destination agents can assist with paperwork, port collection and home delivery. You can also choose shipping to port or handle your own paperwork. Give the actual Curaçao address so the route, work, responsibilities and charges can be agreed for your request.
Use the route leaving Curaçao option and name the country they need to reach. Collection and receiving work for that direction need their own review.
