FIDI has a helpful **[customs guide for moving to Germany](https://www.fidi.org/sites/default/files/public/2020-03/M_Svcs_Customsregulation_Germany_0.pdf)**, of which we highlight a few notable points below. If you are moving to Germany and plan to take private vehicles with you, you will be required to submit a copy of ownership, as well as a copy of the last registration in a foreign country for a minimum of six months before you intend to ship the vehicle to Germany.   If you plan to take animals along with you, it is worth mentioning that you will be restricted to a maximum of five animals. Germany also has a law on the restriction on the introduction or importing of fighting dogs which is to be respected. This includes pit-bull terriers and bull terriers, to name a few. Relocating is always a lot easier when you are prepared. It's a good idea to visit your local German embassy or consulate to familiarise yourself with which documents you will need to start the journey. Creating checklists and having a set budget are other ways to eliminate stress.
