Shipping Greece ↔ New Zealand

Spourgitis handles shipping from Greece to New Zealand: relocations and household goods from Greece to New Zealand, and pallets and commercial goods to and from New Zealand. We are a family-run transport company, in business since 1943. We collect from your address and deliver to the recipient’s door all over New Zealand: Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and every other city. New Zealand is outside the European Union and applies strict biosecurity checks, so every shipment is cleared through customs, and we handle the export customs clearance from Greece.

For Greek businesses exporting to New Zealand, and for businesses and shops in New Zealand bringing in products from Greece, we move euro pallets and commercial goods on a shared load, where you pay only for the space you use, or as a dedicated shipment for large orders. We prepare the transport documents and the export customs clearance from Greece ourselves.

We send olive oil in metal tins and food from Greece to relatives, restaurants and shops in New Zealand, packed so that they arrive intact. See how olive oil transport abroad works.

Every shipment between New Zealand and Greece is cleared through customs, because New Zealand is outside the European Union. We handle the export customs clearance from Greece together with our partners. New Zealand applies strict biosecurity checks: food, plant and animal products and anything with soil on it must be declared and may be inspected. We tell you in advance what your own shipment needs. Import duty and taxes in the destination country are paid by the recipient.

Which documents are needed

• Commercial goods: a commercial invoice with the description and value of each item.
• Personal belongings and gifts: a contents list with their value.
• Food: it is checked by New Zealand biosecurity. Tell us what you are sending and we tell you what applies.
• Moving to New Zealand: household goods can enter free of duty and GST when you go to live there for the first time, or when you return after at least 21 months abroad, for items you own and used before you left. You need the customs form NZCS 218, a copy of your passport, a packing list and the MPI supplementary biosecurity declaration.
