Moving between Italy and Serbia — KOMBI-KOMBI international movers

Italy is the busiest southern European destination for the Serbian diaspora, above all the north — Milan, Turin, Verona, Venice and Bologna. We run the route either through Slovenia, crossing at Fernetti near Trieste, or through Austria over Tarvisio, whichever is quicker on the day.

Why move with KOMBI-KOMBI

  • 13+ years on the Italy – Serbia route
  • A fixed price written into the contract (CMR), with cover against breakage, theft and road accidents
  • Door to door — packing, dismantling, transport, reassembly and customs paperwork

What to plan for on an Italian move

  • Two possible corridors. Through Slovenia (Fernetti, near Trieste) or through Austria (Tarvisio). We pick according to your address, the season and the traffic, and Trieste at 600 km is by some distance the shortest run we make into Italy.
  • Narrow streets and historic centres. In Venice, Florence, Bologna and the older parts of most Italian cities, a large vehicle cannot reach the door. We check the access in advance and plan the carry, or use a smaller van for the final stretch.
  • Restricted traffic zones. Many city centres are ZTL zones with limited access hours for vehicles. We schedule loading and unloading inside the permitted window.
  • Distances within Italy. The country is long: Rome is 1,400 km from Belgrade and Naples 1,600, so southern addresses are a two-day transport rather than one.

How the move works

  1. A free survey and a fixed quote — over the phone, by Viber or WhatsApp, or from photographs of your belongings
  2. Packing, dismantling and loading on the agreed date
  3. Transport and customs — our team handles the paperwork at the border
  4. Delivery, reassembly and unpacking at the new address

Italy – Serbia moving costs in 2026

The price depends on the volume of your belongings (m³), the distance to the city, the floor and whether there is a lift, and on extras such as packing, storage or dismantling. The table below shows indicative prices for a full van of up to 12 m³, which suits a flat of 40–60 m²:

These are starting prices, calculated per kilometre driven. A full service with movers, packing and reassembly runs at €1.5–1.9 per kilometre; groupage is charged by the space your load takes up rather than by distance.

Paperwork and customs

Italy is in the EU and in the Schengen area; Serbia is in neither, so a customs procedure applies in both directions. For a change of residence you will need an inventory of your belongings, proof of residence (Certificato di Residenza, or the AIRE registration for Italians abroad) and your passport.

Moving into the EU falls under the rules on the transfer of normal residence: personal belongings may enter free of duty and VAT where the conditions are met, typically that you have owned and used them for at least six months. Relief from duty is not the same as the absence of a procedure. Our drivers cross at Fernetti and Tarvisio several times a month and handle the formalities for you.

Packing and protecting your furniture

We use proper packing materials and give fragile items — glass, pictures, musical instruments — extra protection with cardboard corners and furniture blankets.

Groupage transport

For smaller consignments — a few boxes, a handful of furniture items, parcels — you share the van with other customers and pay only for the space you use. See how groupage transport works and when the next departures are.

Specialist services

  • VIP moves for clients who need discretion and a tighter schedule
  • Specialist loads — pianos, safes, works of art
  • A full door-to-door service, with everything handled for you
  • Storage in our climate-controlled warehouse in Belgrade
  • Office and business relocations

All of these are described on the services page.
