As the crow flies, the distance from Italy to Germany is a mere 1,050 km. The relationship between Germany and Italy is strong.

Italy and Germany even use the same currency, among the 19 EU states to adopt the Euro.
These close ties make it easy for people to move freely among European countries. Sure, the language might be different, but the European ethos is the same. You will feel right at home in no time.
How does a move from Italy to Germany cost?
Overseas relocation from Italy to Germany is usually done by container, delivered over Europe’s extensive railway system. The cost of moving from Italy to Germany can differ based on where you are moving from in Italy and to in Germany. On average, moving a full-container load from Italy to Germany will cost between $1,600 and $3,300. Half-container loads are usually a few hundred less.

Importing Household Goods to Germany
As a citizen of Italy, an EU member country, you can move to Germany without a residence permit. In addition, your goods can be freely imported without a need for customs declaration or taxes. However, you must register with the local police, or Bürgeramt. You should complete your registration at the local residency office (Einwohnermeldeamt or Bürgeramt) within one to two weeks of your arrival. You will then receive a certificate of registration (Meldebestätigung).
When registering, you must present the following documents:
- Valid EU passport or national identity card
- A completed registration form (Anmeldeformular)
- A copy of the lease or rental agreement (Mietvertrag) as proof of accommodation or a signature from the landlord on the registration form
Even within the EU, you should be aware that the laws governing immigration and customs change often. If you choose not to work with an overseas moving company, you should reach out to your local German embassy to get the most current guidance.
