What actually applies: immigration and customs after Brexit<\/h2>\n<p>Because the UK is fully outside the EU and the EEA, this corridor works differently from an EU-to-EU move:<\/p>\n<p><strong>People.<\/strong> Free movement between the EU and UK ended on 31 December 2020. Polish citizens moving to live or work in the UK now apply under the same <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/the-uks-points-based-immigration-system-information-for-eu-citizens\">points-based system<\/a> as any other non-EU national \u2014 typically a Skilled Worker visa (job offer from a licensed sponsor, salary and English-language thresholds), a family visa, a student visa, or another eligible route. Crucially, <strong>you must apply and receive confirmation of a successful application before you travel<\/strong> \u2014 this is not a &quot;register after arrival&quot; system like an EU-to-EU move, and depending on your route you may also need to pay the Immigration Health Surcharge as part of your application. The EU Settlement Scheme (settled\/pre-settled status) only applies to people who were already resident in the UK before the end of 2020 (with narrow later-application exceptions for specific family cases), so it is not relevant to a fresh 2026 move \u2014 see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/settled-status-eu-citizens-families\">gov.uk on settled status<\/a> for that older cohort&#8217;s rules.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Goods.<\/strong> There is no automatic duty-free\/tax-free import of household goods, but genuine relocations qualify for <strong>Transfer of Residence (ToR) relief<\/strong>, which removes customs duty and import VAT on personal belongings. You (or your mover, on your behalf) complete the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/application-for-transfer-of-residence-relief-tor1\">ToR1 form<\/a> with an itemised inventory, proof of your previous residence abroad, and proof of your new UK address, and should get approval <em>before<\/em> the shipment arrives \u2014 the approval reference then goes on the customs import declaration. Full background is on <a href=\"http:\/\/gov.uk\">gov.uk<\/a>&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/transfer-of-residence-to-great-britain\">transfer of residence to Great Britain<\/a> guidance. Note this is specifically for moves into Great Britain (England, Scotland, Wales); Northern Ireland, which still follows EU customs rules for goods under the Windsor Framework, does not require ToR relief.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Leaving Poland: what to close out<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Report your departure abroad.<\/strong> If you&#8217;re leaving Poland for more than 6 months, file the online notification at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.pl\/web\/gov\/zglos-wyjazd-za-granice\">gov.pl &quot;Zg\u0142o\u015b wyjazd za granic\u0119&quot;<\/a> (via Profil Zaufany or e-ID), no later than your departure day. This automatically de-registers you from your meldunek address \u2014 from your temporary-stay registration only if you intend to return, or from both your temporary and permanent registration if you&#8217;re relocating for good. Poland&#8217;s residence-registration obligation still exists in 2026 and hasn&#8217;t been abolished, but this single online step handles it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Update your tax records.<\/strong> Polish tax residency is a question of fact (center of vital interests, or 183+ days in Poland), not a form you file to &quot;exit&quot; \u2014 but you should still submit <strong>ZAP-3<\/strong> (the standard address-update notification for individual taxpayers) so your tax office has your new address\/country and so correspondence and any future tax-residency certificate requests go to the right place; file it through the <a href=\"https:\/\/urzadskarbowy.gov.pl\/\">e-Urz\u0105d Skarbowy portal<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stop relying on NFZ\/EKUZ.<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/pacjent.gov.pl\/ekuz\">EKUZ (EHIC)<\/a> only covers temporary stays abroad and lapses once you no longer meet Polish public-insurance conditions; once you&#8217;re genuinely resident in the UK you need to enrol in the NHS instead (see Section 4). Details on cross-border healthcare rights for people working\/living in EU\/EFTA states or the UK are on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfz.gov.pl\/dla-pacjenta\/nasze-zdrowie-w-ue\/leczenie-w-krajach-unii-europejskiej-i-efta\/praca-w-panstwach-czlonkowskich-ueefta\/\">NFZ&#8217;s own guidance page<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Deregister your car if you&#8217;re exporting it.<\/strong> If you&#8217;re taking your Polish-registered vehicle to the UK for good, you must notify your local starostwo\/urz\u0105d of the permanent export and deregister the vehicle, handing back your dow\u00f3d rejestracyjny and plates \u2014 the official process is described on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.pl\/web\/gov\/wyrejestruj-pojazd\">gov.pl &quot;Wyrejestruj pojazd&quot;<\/a> (the office itself can take up to a month to process the paperwork, so start this early). Keep the deregistration decision; you&#8217;ll need it for UK import paperwork.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Your driving licence stays valid in Poland&#8217;s own records<\/strong> \u2014 nothing to close there; the exchange step (Section 4) happens on the UK side.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>3. How your household goods actually move (freight-industry estimate)<\/h2>\n<p>This section describes realistic routing and timing based on typical European removals freight practice, not an official government source \u2014 treat the days as planning estimates, not guarantees.<\/p>\n<p>Household-goods shipments from Poland to the UK almost always travel by road, since Poland has no land border with the UK. A loaded removals lorry typically runs west across Germany and the Netherlands or Belgium, then crosses the Channel either via the Eurotunnel (Folkestone\u2013Calais, roughly 35 minutes) or a ferry (Dover\u2013Calais or Dover\u2013Dunkirk with DFDS\/P&amp;O, roughly 1.5\u20132 hours), before completing the final leg to the delivery address in England, Scotland or Wales. Depending on origin city in Poland and delivery address in the UK, door-to-door transit for a dedicated or part-load shipment is typically in the region of <strong>5\u201310 working days<\/strong>, with shared\/groupage loads sometimes taking 2\u20134 weeks depending on how quickly a full truck is consolidated. Because the shipment now crosses a genuine customs border, build in extra buffer time for the ToR1 approval and the customs entry itself \u2014 a mover experienced with UK imports will handle the declaration and NOVA\/vehicle paperwork alongside the household-goods customs entry.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Arriving in the UK: registration, healthcare, tax, driving<\/h2>\n<p>Unlike an EU-to-EU move, your right to be in the UK must already be settled before you land \u2014 the tasks below are what you do <em>after<\/em> your visa\/immigration status is confirmed and you&#8217;ve arrived.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>National Insurance number.<\/strong> You need an NI number to work and pay tax correctly. Apply online once you&#8217;re in the UK and have the right to work \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/apply-national-insurance-number\">gov.uk: apply for a National Insurance number<\/a>. You can start work before it arrives if you can prove your right to work, but HMRC advise allowing up to 4 weeks for the number itself.<\/li>\n<li><strong>NHS healthcare.<\/strong> Register with a local GP practice as soon as you have an address \u2014 it&#8217;s free and, per the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/nhs-services\/gps\/how-to-register-with-a-gp-surgery\/\">NHS&#8217;s own registration guidance<\/a>, you do not need ID, proof of address, or proof of immigration status to register (a practice may ask, but can&#8217;t refuse you for not having them). Registration is usually confirmed within about 5 working days, and the practice arranges your NHS number automatically if it&#8217;s your first UK registration.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Council tax.<\/strong> Council tax is payable UK-wide except in Northern Ireland (which uses a separate rates system) \u2014 you must register with your local council when you move in. <a href=\"http:\/\/Gov.uk\">Gov.uk<\/a>&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/start-paying-council-tax\">start paying Council Tax<\/a> guidance covers England and Wales specifically; if you&#8217;re settling in Scotland, registration works the same way in practice \u2014 contact your local council directly \u2014 but sits under separate Scottish administration.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Register to vote (if eligible).<\/strong> Being on the electoral register also helps with credit checks and bank account opening \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/register-to-vote\">gov.uk: register to vote<\/a>. Eligibility depends on your immigration\/citizenship status.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Exchange your driving licence.<\/strong> Poland is currently on the UK&#8217;s list of countries whose licences can be swapped for a UK one without a test. Use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/exchange-foreign-driving-licence\">gov.uk&#8217;s exchange a foreign driving licence tool<\/a> to confirm your specific eligibility \u2014 it will tell you whether to apply online or by post using form D1. DVLA typically returns a UK photocard licence within a few weeks; in the meantime a valid Polish licence remains usable to drive in Great Britain.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Import your car properly.<\/strong> Every vehicle brought into the UK permanently must be notified to HMRC within <strong>14 days<\/strong> of arrival using the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/importing-vehicles-into-the-uk\/telling-hmrc\">NOVA \u2014 Notification of Vehicle Arrivals \u2014 service<\/a>; you cannot register the car with the DVLA (get UK plates and a V5C logbook) until you have a NOVA reference, so don&#8217;t delay this step.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>5. Bringing a pet<\/h2>\n<p>Great Britain&#8217;s pet travel rules for dogs, cats and ferrets coming from an EU country like Poland are more forgiving than the reverse direction (UK-to-EU), which now needs an Animal Health Certificate. Coming <em>into<\/em> Great Britain, the official requirements are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Microchip<\/strong> your pet before the rabies vaccination.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rabies vaccination<\/strong>, with a wait of at least 21 full days after the first (primary) vaccination before travel.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Travel document<\/strong>: a pet passport issued in Poland (or another EU country) is a valid entry document \u2014 you do not need a separate Animal Health Certificate if you already have a genuine EU pet passport. Full detail is on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/bring-pet-to-great-britain\/which-pet-travel-document\">gov.uk: which pet travel document you need<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tapeworm treatment for dogs<\/strong>, given by a vet no less than 24 hours and no more than 5 days before you arrive in Great Britain, recorded in the passport \u2014 see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/bring-pet-to-great-britain\/tapeworm-treatment-dogs\">gov.uk: tapeworm treatment for dogs<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Check your ferry\/tunnel operator&#8217;s own pet policy in advance, as not every crossing carries animals.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Money, banking and things people forget<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Open a UK bank account early<\/strong> \u2014 most providers want proof of UK address, which can be a chicken-and-egg problem before you&#8217;re settled; some accept a tenancy agreement or an employer letter in the meantime.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Check what your specific visa route costs beyond the headline fee.<\/strong> The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/the-uks-points-based-immigration-system-information-for-eu-citizens\">points-based system guidance<\/a> confirms that applicants coming for more than 6 months are typically also liable for the Immigration Health Surcharge (with some visa routes, such as Health and Care visas, exempt) \u2014 confirm the current figure on your own visa route&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/gov.uk\">gov.uk<\/a> page before you apply.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Currency risk<\/strong>: converting PLN into GBP for a house deposit or first months&#8217; rent is a real cost most people underestimate \u2014 compare a currency broker&#8217;s rate against your bank&#8217;s.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don&#8217;t let your Polish mobile\/bank correspondence lapse<\/strong> \u2014 you&#8217;ll need Polish-side documents (tax certificates, pension records) for years after you leave, so keep an EU forwarding address or digital access via Profil Zaufany\/mObywatel.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pension records<\/strong>: don&#8217;t assume UK and Polish pension contributions link up automatically \u2014 check directly with ZUS and the relevant UK authority for your specific work history rather than relying on assumptions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How Flyto handles your Poland to the UK move<\/h2>\n<p>Flyto runs its own offices, warehouses, teams and vehicles across Northern, Central and Southern Europe, so the Poland-side collection, customs paperwork coordination and cross-border transport on this route are handled by people we employ directly. For the parts of the journey outside our own network \u2014 including the final UK delivery leg and specialist services like vehicle shipping \u2014 we work with a carefully vetted network of partner carriers and agents, so you get one point of contact even where multiple operators are involved.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Do I need a visa to move from Poland to the UK in 2026?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes. Free movement ended in 2020, so unless you already hold settled\/pre-settled status from before then, you need to qualify and apply under the UK&#8217;s points-based system (such as a Skilled Worker visa) and get confirmation before travelling \u2014 see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/the-uks-points-based-immigration-system-information-for-eu-citizens\">gov.uk&#8217;s points-based system guidance for EU citizens<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Will I pay customs duty on my furniture and belongings?<\/strong><br \/>\nNot if you qualify for Transfer of Residence relief and get it approved before your goods arrive \u2014 apply using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/application-for-transfer-of-residence-relief-tor1\">ToR1<\/a>. Without ToR approval, normal import duty and VAT could apply, so don&#8217;t skip this step.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can I keep using my EKUZ\/EHIC card once I live in the UK?<\/strong><br \/>\nNo \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/pacjent.gov.pl\/ekuz\">EKUZ<\/a> is only for temporary stays.
