Keep your household list and receiving plan together.
Sending boxes or moving your household to Suriname? Tell us what you want to take and where it needs to arrive. Our team handles the survey and manages the job, including the international packing and receiving work agreed for your shipment.
A useful list describes the belongings and helps explain how you want them received. Keep those two parts together, even if you are still deciding what to take.
01
The things you are sending
Work through the rooms. Note furniture, boxes and loose pieces, with quantities and measurements where known. Mark fragile items and anything that needs taking apart.
Separate what will travel in the first shipment from anything you expect to send later. Update the same list when a piece is added or removed.
Name the receiving address in Suriname and who will be there. Tell us about stairs, parking limits, carrying distance and space for large furniture.
If the final address is undecided, say so. A place name alone does not explain the delivery work or confirm that a particular arrangement is available.
Choose the help around the belongings
Let the item list shape the packing.
Show the team the furniture and delicate pieces before the job is agreed. 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. Tell us which items need their attention and where preparation is needed so the survey can cover the right work.
A legacy Suriname customs instruction discusses household inventories and belongings sent in parts. It has no clear revision date, so it is a starting point for questions, not confirmation of today's requirements.
Is this the whole shipment?
Explain what is leaving now and whether further belongings may follow. Ask how the complete inventory should be described for your circumstances.
Which personal circumstances matter?
Ask the authority or appointed agent which current residence or registration information is relevant. Do not assume that describing goods as used household effects settles the process.
Who is checking the current procedure?
Agree who will check the paperwork and when it is needed. Keep passports and other sensitive identity records out of the initial enquiry.
Read the legacy household instruction ↗. Reviewed 6 November 2026; its current official status and revision date were not established. Confirm the current procedure with the responsible authority before acting. No duty relief, permit or clearance outcome is decided by this page.
Beyond the transport
Agree the job through to the handover.
Tell us the actual Suriname address and the help you want at the receiving end. Our established destination agents can assist with paperwork, port collection and home delivery; the arrangements for your route and address need to be agreed.
You can choose shipping to port or manage your own paperwork. Make that choice clear so the quotation describes the work you want and where your responsibilities begin.
Preparation and collection
Check the items, packing work and collection access against the survey.
Transport and receiving
Name the intended handover and who handles each arrival task.
Work and charges
Ask what the quotation includes and which destination or third-party costs are separate.
Make the next conversation useful
Questions before a Suriname shipment.
Can I send only part of my household?
Describe the pieces you want to send and anything staying behind. A clear list helps the team discuss packing and transport without assuming a full-house move or a particular container.
What if more belongings will follow later?
Mention that at the start. Keep a whole-household inventory and identify each proposed consignment. Ask the responsible authority or agent how the current procedure applies to your circumstances before arranging separate shipments.
Can the team help with international packing?
Yes. Show us the belongings and tell us where preparation is needed. Full-service moves include international packing, dismantling and reassembly, with the work agreed in the quotation. Packing-only booking conditions need a separate check.
Does a household move automatically qualify for duty relief?
No automatic relief can be confirmed here. Eligibility and any conditions need a current review by the responsible authority for your goods and circumstances. The undated instruction linked above does not establish today's decision.
What helps explain the shipping cost?
Bring the item list, quantities, measurements, collection access and receiving details. Say which packing and handover tasks you want included. The team can then review the route and scope before a price or booking is agreed.
What about a vehicle, or a shipment leaving Suriname?
Give vehicle details separately so acceptance and current import requirements can be checked for the receiving country. For belongings leaving Suriname, start with the route-from option and name the actual destination.
