Your move from Brazil to South Korea, from start to finish.

Goods used abroad for more than 3 months are exempt from customs duties, based on Article 96 of the Korean Customs Act, except for items subject to mandatory taxation. Goods used for less than 3 months are taxed. Vehicles, jewelry and high unit-value items follow their own rules. That is why the acquisition date of each item is included in our inventory.

Because South Korea uses length of use as an objective criterion for the exemption. More than 3 months' use abroad guarantees the exemption; less than 3 months results in taxation. And there is an expensive detail: failing to declare goods acquired less than 3 months ago results in an additional penalty of 20% on the tax due. We perform this screening during packing, item by item.

It is the official declaration form for moving goods of the Korea Customs Service, the Annex Form No. 1. It must be submitted in the name of the person moving to Korea. Completion and filing are carried out by us, with support from the local accredited agent, so that you do not have to handle the Korean customs procedure.

You need to present the Alien Registration Card issued by Korean immigration or, prior to its issuance, the visa accompanied by an employment contract or certificate of passport validity. Without this documented link, the declaration of moving goods will not proceed. We verify this pending item in the initial analysis before shipment.

The goods must arrive within 6 months counted from the date of your arrival in the country. As maritime transit consumes 50 to 70 days, the window is comfortable, but the shipment needs to be planned together with your flight date. We work with this deadline from the initial timeline.

You can import, but almost certainly with taxation. The Korean exemption applies only to vehicles originally exported from Korea, generally identified by plates starting with K. A Brazilian car, even with more than 3 months of registration in your name, is subject to mandatory taxation estimated at about 19% for engines up to 1,000 cc and 24% above that, calculated on customs value, freight and insurance. The limit is one vehicle per family. This is the costliest mistake on the route when not planned, and our team advises on feasibility case by case.

Yes. Dogs and cats aged 90 days or older coming from countries not free of rabies, such as Brazil, require an ISO-standard microchip and a rabies virus neutralizing antibody test with a minimum titre of 0.5 IU/ml performed in an approved laboratory. With correct documentation the animal is released the same day. With irregular documentation it may be placed in quarantine, averaging 10 days, at the owner's expense. Entry is via the airports of Incheon, Gimhae and Gimpo or via the ports of Incheon and Busan. Preparation begins months before the flight, conducted by our pet department. We have already transported more than one thousand animals.

Firearms, knives, ammunition, radioactive materials, narcotics, endangered animals, counterfeit products, commercial goods, pornographic material and illegal monitoring equipment. Jewelry, pearls, ivory and similar items above KRW 5 million per unit are not prohibited, but are subject to mandatory taxation. We review the inventory against both lists before shipment.

In Brazil, collection, packing, the inventory with acquisition dates and export documentation are conducted by One Moving’s own team. In South Korea, the Moving-Goods Declaration Form, customs clearance with the Korea Customs Service, final delivery and assembly are carried out by accredited agents of our international network, under supervision of our team. The sorting of goods by length of use, which is the typical bottleneck on this route, takes place here in Brazil before shipment.
