Beijing to Vancouver sea shipping moving

Client Information: Ms. Tian;
Shipping Route: Beijing to Vancouver;
Service Date: 2019.9.28;
Case Summary: Ms. Tian from Beijing used Seapoe Relo's door-to-door double-clearance service to ship furniture and other items from her Beijing home to Vancouver, Canada.

Vancouver is the third-largest city in Canada and the political, cultural, tourism, and transportation center of Canada's Seapoe region. With its pleasant climate and beautiful scenery, it has been rated for many years as one of the most livable cities for humans. In addition, it is home to one of the largest concentrations of Chinese people in Canada, with ethnic Chinese making up 21% of the population. As a result, it has long been the top destination for Chinese immigrants settling in Canada, and in recent years an increasing number of Chinese immigrants have come here to live, study, invest, and buy property.

Ms. Tian from Beijing was moving to Vancouver and chose Seapoe Relo's door-to-door double-clearance service to ship some furniture and luggage to Vancouver. The door-to-door double-clearance service process for moving from Beijing to Vancouver is simple: submit shipping requirements → Seapoe provides a free on-site volume assessment and quotation → sign the carriage contract and arrange door-to-door pickup and packing → domestic customs declaration and ocean freight booking → overseas customs clearance and door delivery → simple furniture assembly and removal of packing waste, all without Ms. Tian having to lift a finger. As for the cost of moving, international moving is billed by the total volume of items and is also related to factors such as distance, timing, and the choice of service method. Therefore, Seapoe Relo will develop a reasonable moving plan based on the actual situation, ensuring safety and reliability!

Below is the on-site pickup and packing scene from that day:

Unlike other countries, customs clearance in Canada requires the individual to go to the customs office in person to be questioned before release is granted. Therefore, after these items arrive in Canada, Seapoe's agent in Canada will assist Ms. Tian with customs clearance. It is important to note that when moving from China to Canada, you need to choose a professional international moving company. Only professionalism can guarantee moving safety (safety is the primary requirement of moving) and ensure quality service (good service is what makes moving worry-free and smooth)!

Notes on moving from Beijing to Vancouver:

1. New immigrants moving to Canada for the first time can enjoy the benefit of duty-free import of personal belongings. The conditions for duty-free treatment are: (1) having recently immigrated to Canada, or having obtained a Maple Card not long ago, within five years; (2) the consigned items are of a mixed nature, including not only large furniture but also miscellaneous daily necessities; (3) most of the items are used, for example, more than 80% used items.

2. Canada's inspection and quarantine laws are quite strict, and the Canadian customs inspection and quarantine authorities have very extensive powers. New immigrants are not allowed to bring in items such as animal and plant seeds, unprocessed meat, or poultry and livestock that have not undergone inspection and quarantine. Therefore, friends who wish to bring such items should consider this carefully.

3. Customs clearance of personal belongings in Canada requires the individual to be present on-site to assist with clearance; at the time of clearance, the recipient in person must bring their passport and original Maple Card to the site to complete the in-person verification of the two documents.
