RESETTLEMENT PROPERTY

Resettlement property is personal property that you bring with you when you move your residence
from a non-EU country to Poland.
In order to benefit from the exemption of duties and taxes on resettlement property, you must meet
several conditions, such as:
– Continuously reside outside the European Union for at least 12 months before moving to Poland.
– Own and use the resettlement property for at least 6 months prior to the change of residence.
– Bring in resettlement property within 12 months of moving to Poland.
– Do not dispose of resettlement property to others for at least 12 months after its importation.
In order to clear resettlement property in Poland, you must declare it to the customs authority for
the release procedure.
Depending on the type of resettlement property, you may need additional documents, such as a
vehicle registration certificate, a certificate of registration or a housing tenancy agreement, a tax
return from the country from which the resettlement property is imported.

In order to register a vehicle imported as part of resettlement property, it must first be placed under a customs transit procedure at the first EU customs office. A declaration for the release of the goods must then be lodged. The declaration can be made in the form of a SAD document (specimen available on the PUESC portal) or in the form of an electronic message to the AIS/IMPORT system. Then, the days should be as short as possible to register the vehicle in the territory of the Republic of Poland. To do so, you will of course need all the basic documents necessary to register the vehicle, including the original SAD customs document. If you have not cleared transit for various reasons, we will assist you in submitting the appropriate application for the clearance of your property so that you can still clear customs.

Resettlement property from the UK has changed significantly due to
BREXIT. From 1 January 2021, the UK ceased to be a member of the EU, as
a result of which it joined the so-called third countries. In view of this,
anyone wishing to transport property from the UK to Poland must comply
with the third country resettlement property rules.
