Best Removals Company to Europe | Euroremovals
Best Removals Company to Europe Euroremovals has been moving Irish customers to the continent since 2003 and can professionally advise about the legal implications of such a move. EU citizens can stay in another EU country for up to 3 months without registering there but you may need to report your presence. The only requirement is to hold a valid national identity card or passport. If you want to stay longer than 3 months, you may need to register your residence.
If you are moving permanently
If you have lived legally, meeting the conditions to stay in another EU country, for a continuous period of 5 years you automatically acquire the right of permanent residence there. This means that you can stay in the country as long as you want.
Your continuity of residence is not affected by:
- temporary absences (less than 6 months per year)
- longer absences for compulsory military service
- one absence of 12 consecutive months, for important reasons such as pregnancy and childbirth, serious illness, work, vocational training or a posting to another country
You can lose your right to permanent residence if you live outside the country for more than 2 consecutive years.
Best Removals Company to Europe: Permanent residence before 5 years
You may qualify for permanent residence in under 5 years in any of the following situations:
- if you retire and have worked in the country for the last year, or have lived there continuously for 3 years
- if you stop working because you are no longer able to work and have lived in the country continuously for 2 years
- if you stop working because you are no longer able to work due to an accident at work or occupational illness. In this case, you have the right to remain regardless of how long you have lived in the country prior to the accident or illness
- if you start working in another EU country as a cross-border worker – you must return to your place of residence at least once a week – but have worked in the country where you want to obtain permanent residence for 3 years continuously beforehand.
Reporting your presence and registering your residence
Some EU countries require you to report your presence https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/residence/documents-formalities/reporting-presence/index_en.htm to the relevant authorities within a reasonable time after arrival. They may impose a penalty, such as a fine if you fail to do so.
As an employed person in your host country, you should register your residence with the relevant authority (often the town hall or local police station) after the first 3 months. When you register, you will get a registration certificate. This certificate confirms your right to live in your host country.
You will need:
- a valid identity card or passport
- certificate of employment or confirmation of recruitment from your employer
- (if self-employed) proof of your status as self-employed
You don’t need to provide other documents.
Deportation procedures
In many EU countries, you need to carry an identity card or passport with you at all times. In these countries, you could be fined or temporarily detained if you leave your identity documents at home – but you cannot be forced to return to your home country for this reason alone.
