A successful relocation depends on getting <strong>both halves<\/strong> right \u2014 clearing your household goods out of the EU through Austria&#8217;s customs system, and importing them into Canada under the correct settler category. This guide walks through the Austrian export and deregistration side, the Canadian import side, pets, vehicles and money, plus a short note for anyone eventually heading back the other way. It is written for a resident of Austria \u2014 Austrian, EU or third-country national \u2014 moving to Canada as a new permanent resident, work-permit holder or student.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"flyto-article-img\" style=\"margin:26px 0;border-radius:16px;overflow:hidden;box-shadow:0 18px 40px -22px rgba(15,15,15,.3);\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/flyto-wp-uploads.s3.eu-north-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/03182823\/FLYTO-Muutto-Kuvaaja-Nuuti-Paananen-9_2_11zon-scaled-1.jpg\" alt=\"Flyto Relocation international moving\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;display:block;\"><\/figure>\n<h2>Key takeaways<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Your <strong>Canadian immigration status decides your customs treatment<\/strong>: new permanent residents import personal effects duty- and tax-free as &quot;settlers&quot; under tariff item 9807.00.00 on form <strong>BSF186<\/strong> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/publications\/forms-formulaires\/bsf186-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>Contrary to popular belief, <strong>settlers have no six-month prior-ownership rule<\/strong> \u2014 that condition applies only to returning <em>former residents<\/em> under 9805.00.00 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/publications\/forms-formulaires\/bsf186-eng.html\">CBSA BSF186<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>Austria&#8217;s single customs authority is the <strong>Zollamt \u00d6sterreich (Customs Authority Austria)<\/strong>, which handles all export declarations nationwide (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmf.gv.at\/en\/the-ministry\/internal-organisation\/Customs-Authority-Austria-.html\">BMF<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>A full household shipment leaving the EU is lodged as an <strong>electronic export declaration<\/strong> in Austria&#8217;s customs system; oral declarations are only allowed for commercial goods up to \u20ac1,000 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.usp.gv.at\/themen\/aussenwirtschaft\/ausfuhr-von-waren\/ausfuhrverfahren.html\">USP<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>You must <strong>deregister your residence (Abmeldung)<\/strong> within three days of moving out, in person or online with ID Austria (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oesterreich.gv.at\/en\/themen\/persoenliche_dokumente_und_bestaetigungen\/an__abmeldung_des_wohnsitzes\">oesterreich.gv.at<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dogs and cats<\/strong> need a valid rabies vaccination certificate to enter Canada; you must declare every animal to CBSA (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/services\/fpa-apa\/animals-animaux-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>Report <strong>CAD 10,000 or more<\/strong> in cash or monetary instruments to CBSA on arrival, or risk seizure (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/travel-voyage\/declare-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>Austria is <strong>landlocked<\/strong> \u2014 there are no Austrian seaports, so ocean freight is trucked to North Sea or Adriatic ports first.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>1. How your Canadian status determines the customs treatment<\/h2>\n<p>Before you book a single crate, settle your Canadian immigration status, because it dictates how customs treats your belongings. Canada&#8217;s <strong>Personal Effects Accounting Document, form BSF186<\/strong>, asks you to identify yourself as a <em>settler<\/em>, <em>former resident<\/em>, <em>seasonal resident<\/em> or <em>beneficiary<\/em> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/publications\/forms-formulaires\/bsf186-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>A <strong>settler<\/strong> is a person who enters Canada with the intention of establishing, for the first time, a residence for a period of not less than 12 months. Settlers import used household and personal goods free of duty and tax under <strong>tariff item 9807.00.00<\/strong>, provided the goods were actually owned, possessed and used abroad by the settler prior to arrival, are for personal use and are not resold (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/publications\/forms-formulaires\/bsf186-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>). Crucially, the widely repeated &quot;six-month ownership rule&quot; does <strong>not<\/strong> apply to settlers \u2014 that is a condition for <em>former residents<\/em> returning to Canada under item 9805.00.00.<\/p>\n<p>If instead you are arriving on a temporary work or study permit and do not yet intend to stay beyond 12 months, your goods are typically handled as temporary importations rather than settler&#8217;s effects. In short: the same crate of furniture is treated differently depending on the status you declare, so decide it up front and complete your BSF186 accordingly.<\/p>\n<h2>2. The Austria export side \u2014 customs, deregistration and tax exit<\/h2>\n<p><strong>The customs authority.<\/strong> Since 1 January 2021 Austria has had a single nationwide customs body, the <strong>Zollamt \u00d6sterreich (Customs Authority Austria)<\/strong>, which sits under the Federal Ministry of Finance (Bundesministerium f\u00fcr Finanzen, BMF) and handles all levies, declarations and controls (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmf.gv.at\/en\/the-ministry\/internal-organisation\/Customs-Authority-Austria-.html\">BMF<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>The export declaration.<\/strong> Household goods are &quot;Union goods,&quot; so exporting them to Canada means placing them under the EU export procedure (Ausfuhrverfahren). Declarations are lodged electronically in Austria&#8217;s customs application, which generates an <strong>Export Accompanying Document<\/strong> for the shipment (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.usp.gv.at\/themen\/aussenwirtschaft\/ausfuhr-von-waren\/ausfuhrverfahren.html\">USP<\/a>). Simplified options exist only for low-value <strong>commercial<\/strong> consignments: an oral declaration is allowed up to \u20ac1,000, and a one-stage export directly at the exit customs office up to \u20ac3,000 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.usp.gv.at\/themen\/aussenwirtschaft\/ausfuhr-von-waren\/ausfuhrverfahren.html\">USP<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wko.at\/aussenwirtschaft\/zollanmeldung\">WKO<\/a>). A full container of personal effects sits well above these thresholds, so in practice your mover or a customs agent files a standard electronic export declaration on your behalf. Union goods must always be declared to the competent customs authority for export before they leave the EU.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Deregistration (Abmeldung).<\/strong> Austria runs a compulsory residence-registration system under the Meldegesetz 1991. When you give up your dwelling you must <strong>deregister within three days<\/strong> \u2014 you may do so up to three days before or after moving out (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oesterreich.gv.at\/en\/themen\/persoenliche_dokumente_und_bestaetigungen\/an__abmeldung_des_wohnsitzes\">oesterreich.gv.at<\/a>). You can file in person, by post or electronically via <a href=\"http:\/\/oesterreich.gv.at\">oesterreich.gv.at<\/a> using ID Austria; the accommodation provider&#8217;s signature is not required, and you receive written confirmation. Missing the deadline can draw an administrative penalty (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oesterreich.gv.at\/en\/themen\/persoenliche_dokumente_und_bestaetigungen\/an__abmeldung_des_wohnsitzes\">oesterreich.gv.at<\/a>). Keep the deregistration confirmation \u2014 it is your proof that you gave up your Austrian residence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tax residency.<\/strong> Ending your day-to-day life in Austria usually ends your unlimited Austrian tax liability, which is administered by the Finanzamt \u00d6sterreich (the tax administration under the BMF); income tax is the relevant regime (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oesterreich.gv.at\/en\/themen\/steuern_und_finanzen\/\">oesterreich.gv.at<\/a>). Because emigration can trigger consequences for accrued gains on certain assets, confirm your exit position with your Finanzamt or a tax adviser before you leave rather than after.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Ports and transit \u2014 the real Austrian gateways<\/h2>\n<p>Austria is <strong>landlocked<\/strong>, so there is no such thing as an Austrian seaport. Every ocean-freight household move therefore begins with an inland leg by road or rail to a coastal gateway. In practice, Austrian removals route through the <strong>North Sea ports of Hamburg and Bremerhaven (Germany), Rotterdam (Netherlands) or Antwerp (Belgium)<\/strong>, or the closer <strong>Adriatic ports of Koper (Slovenia) and Trieste (Italy)<\/strong>. Air freight and accompanied baggage move through <strong>Vienna International Airport (VIE)<\/strong>, Austria&#8217;s main cargo hub.<\/p>\n<p>Transit times below are <strong>freight-industry estimates, not official government figures<\/strong>, and vary with sailing schedules, transhipment and port congestion:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Adriatic or North Sea port to an Eastern Canadian port (e.g. Montr\u00e9al or Halifax): roughly <strong>3\u20136 weeks<\/strong> port-to-port for sea freight.<\/li>\n<li>Add <strong>1\u20133 weeks<\/strong> each side for collection, export clearance, inland haulage to the load port, and Canadian customs clearance plus final delivery.<\/li>\n<li>Air freight is far faster \u2014 typically a <strong>few days to about two weeks<\/strong> door-to-door \u2014 but costs several times more per cubic metre.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Treat any quoted date as an estimate and build slack into your plans, especially around your Canadian arrival, since your goods should not be released before you complete your BSF186.<\/p>\n<h2>4. The Canada import side \u2014 the actual form and process<\/h2>\n<p>Canada&#8217;s import process for movers centres on one document: the <strong>BSF186 Personal Effects Accounting Document (PEAD)<\/strong>, sometimes still called the B4 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/publications\/forms-formulaires\/bsf186-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>). You may complete it online before arrival \u2014 CBSA recommends this \u2014 and you present it at your first point of entry.<\/p>\n<p>The form uses two lists. <strong>List A<\/strong> covers goods arriving with you; <strong>List B<\/strong>, &quot;goods to follow,&quot; covers everything shipped separately that will arrive later (your sea container almost always goes on List B). For high-value items \u2014 electronics, jewellery, musical instruments, art \u2014 record make, model, serial number and value. The Border Services Officer stamps and returns a copy, and your mover or broker uses that stamped BSF186 to clear the container duty-free when it lands. You <strong>cannot add items to List B after your first entry<\/strong>, so inventory everything before you cross.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, CBSA requires you to <strong>declare all goods<\/strong> you bring or have shipped; failing to declare, or making a false declaration, can lead to seizure with penalties assessed as a percentage of value (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/travel-voyage\/declare-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>). Declaring fully and accurately is what keeps the settler exemption intact.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Pets \u2014 official rules at both ends<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Into Canada.<\/strong> All animals must be declared to CBSA on arrival; officers inspect the paperwork and can refuse entry, detain or confiscate an undeclared animal (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/services\/fpa-apa\/animals-animaux-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>). Import requirements are set by the <strong>Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA)<\/strong>. For a personal pet dog or cat, the core requirement from a country that is not free of rabies \u2014 which includes Austria \u2014 is a <strong>valid rabies vaccination certificate<\/strong> in English or French, signed by a licensed veterinarian; animals under three months are handled differently because they cannot be effectively vaccinated before about 12 weeks (<a href=\"https:\/\/inspection.canada.ca\/en\/importing-food-plants-animals\/pets\">CFIA<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/services\/fpa-apa\/animals-animaux-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>). Always check your exact case in CFIA&#8217;s <strong>Automated Import Reference System (AIRS)<\/strong> before travelling, and carry the original documents (<a href=\"https:\/\/inspection.canada.ca\/en\/importing-food-plants-animals\/airs\">CFIA AIRS<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>The reverse, back into Austria\/EU.<\/strong> Canada is a <em>listed<\/em> non-EU country for EU pet travel, which means a dog, cat or ferret can enter the EU without a rabies antibody titration test \u2014 the additional test only applies to <em>unlisted<\/em> countries (<a href=\"https:\/\/food.ec.europa.eu\/animals\/movement-pets_en\">European Commission<\/a>). The standard EU conditions still apply: microchip, valid rabies vaccination and an EU animal health certificate (<a href=\"https:\/\/food.ec.europa.eu\/animals\/movement-pets_en\">European Commission<\/a>).<\/p>\n<h2>6. Vehicles, money and the things people forget<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Money.<\/strong> Declare <strong>CAD 10,000 or more<\/strong> \u2014 in any mix of currencies plus monetary instruments such as bank drafts, cheques and traveller&#8217;s cheques \u2014 to CBSA when you enter Canada; undeclared amounts can be seized (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/travel-voyage\/declare-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>). Leaving the EU, the equivalent \u20ac10,000 cash-control threshold applies, so plan large transfers through your bank rather than in a suitcase.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vehicles.<\/strong> Importing a car to Canada is a separate regime with safety, emissions and Registrar of Imported Vehicles steps; for most Austrian moves it is cheaper and simpler to sell the car before leaving than to ship a European-spec vehicle. If you do ship one, treat it as its own project, not as household goods.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Easily forgotten:<\/strong> keep your <strong>stamped BSF186<\/strong> safe until every &quot;goods to follow&quot; shipment has cleared; retain your Austrian <strong>Abmeldung<\/strong> confirmation and a final tax settlement; carry pet documents as originals; and remember alcohol and tobacco are never covered by the settler exemption.<\/p>\n<h2>How Flyto handles your Austria to Canada move<\/h2>\n<p>Flyto runs strong in-house European operations \u2014 our own offices, warehouses, teams and vehicles across Northern, Central and Southern Europe \u2014 which we combine with a carefully chosen network of vetted partners and subcontractors for the legs we do not cover directly. On the Canadian side we work through trusted local partners for port clearance and final delivery, so your goods move under one coordinated plan from your Austrian door to your new Canadian home.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Do I pay Canadian duty on my used furniture?<\/strong><br \/>\nNot as a settler. New permanent residents import used personal and household effects duty- and tax-free under tariff item 9807.00.00, declared on the BSF186, as long as they are for personal use and not for resale (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/publications\/forms-formulaires\/bsf186-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is there really no six-month ownership rule for me?<\/strong><br \/>\nCorrect \u2014 the six-month prior-ownership condition applies to returning <em>former residents<\/em> (9805.00.00), not to settlers (9807.00.00). Settlers simply need to have owned, possessed and used the goods abroad before arriving in Canada (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/publications\/forms-formulaires\/bsf186-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who files the Austrian export declaration?<\/strong><br \/>\nYour mover or a customs agent lodges an electronic export declaration with the Zollamt \u00d6sterreich for a full household shipment; the low-value oral (\u20ac1,000) and simplified (\u20ac3,000) options are for commercial goods only (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.usp.gv.at\/themen\/aussenwirtschaft\/ausfuhr-von-waren\/ausfuhrverfahren.html\">USP<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmf.gv.at\/en\/the-ministry\/internal-organisation\/Customs-Authority-Austria-.html\">BMF<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>When do I have to deregister in Austria?<\/strong><br \/>\nWithin three days of giving up your dwelling \u2014 up to three days before or after \u2014 via the registration authority, including online with ID Austria (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oesterreich.gv.at\/en\/themen\/persoenliche_dokumente_und_bestaetigungen\/an__abmeldung_des_wohnsitzes\">oesterreich.gv.at<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can my dog fly with me to Canada?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes, but declare it to CBSA and carry a valid rabies vaccination certificate in English or French; verify your specific requirements in CFIA&#8217;s AIRS beforehand (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/services\/fpa-apa\/animals-animaux-eng.html\">CBSA<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/inspection.canada.ca\/en\/importing-food-plants-animals\/pets\">CFIA<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>How long will the sea freight take?<\/strong><br \/>\nIndustry estimates run roughly 3\u20136 weeks port-to-port plus 1\u20133 weeks each side for collection, clearance and delivery \u2014 these are freight-industry figures, not official government times, and depend on schedules and congestion.<\/p>\n<h2>Sources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmf.gv.at\/en\/the-ministry\/internal-organisation\/Customs-Authority-Austria-.html\">Customs Authority Austria (Zollamt \u00d6sterreich) \u2014 BMF<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmf.gv.at\/en\/topics\/customs.html\">Customs overview \u2014 BMF<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usp.gv.at\/themen\/aussenwirtschaft\/ausfuhr-von-waren\/ausfuhrverfahren.html\">Export procedure (Ausfuhrverfahren) \u2014 USP \/ oesterreich.gv.at<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wko.at\/aussenwirtschaft\/zollanmeldung\">Forms of customs declaration \u2014 WKO<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oesterreich.gv.at\/en\/themen\/persoenliche_dokumente_und_bestaetigungen\/an__abmeldung_des_wohnsitzes\">De-\/registration of residence (Abmeldung) \u2014 oesterreich.gv.at<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oesterreich.gv.at\/en\/themen\/steuern_und_finanzen\/\">Taxes and finances \/ income tax \u2014 oesterreich.gv.at<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmf.gv.at\/en\/topics\/customs\/tax-and-duty-free-import-of-relocation-goods\/transferring-place-of-residence-from-a-non-eu-country.html\">Transferring your normal place of residence from a non-EU country \u2014 BMF<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmeia.gv.at\/en\/austrian-embassy-ottawa\/travel-information-on-austria\/customs-import\/\">Customs &amp; Import (Austrian Embassy Ottawa) \u2014 BMEIA<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/publications\/forms-formulaires\/bsf186-eng.html\">BSF186 Personal Effects Accounting Document \u2014 CBSA<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/travel-voyage\/declare-eng.html\">What you can and must declare (currency, goods) \u2014 CBSA<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca\/services\/fpa-apa\/animals-animaux-eng.html\">Travelling with animals \u2014 CBSA<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/inspection.canada.ca\/en\/importing-food-plants-animals\/pets\">Importing or travelling with pets \u2014 CFIA<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/inspection.canada.ca\/en\/importing-food-plants-animals\/airs\">Automated Import Reference System (AIRS) \u2014 CFIA<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/food.ec.europa.eu\/animals\/movement-pets_en\">Bringing pets into the EU (movement of pets) \u2014 European Commission<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Austria-to-Canada corridor is a classic long-haul move: a landlocked Central European starting point, an ocean crossing on either the North Sea or Adriatic side, and one of the world&#8217;s most paperwork-driven arrival regimes.
