Relocation to Thailand
Your reliable partner for Relocation to Thailand. Koch Umzugslogistik – for 125 years.
Thailand is a popular destination for German emigrants – whether to work in Bangkok, to live by the sea in Phuket or to retire in Chiang Mai. Koch Umzugslogistik organises your move to Thailand by sea freight. Transit time is 6–9 weeks.

The tropical climate calls for climate-protective packing, especially for wooden furniture, electronics and books. Our team uses suitable materials. Thai customs clearance is manageable, and when you relocate your residence, household goods are generally duty-free. We coordinate with our experienced partners in Thailand and, on request, advise you on visas, finding accommodation and your first administrative steps.
