    How we pack for the Liechtenstein route

    The crossing matters. Eurotunnel or Dover–Calais, then France, Switzerland or Austria means the load is restrained for road and sea movement, and anything moisture sensitive gets a barrier layer before it is wrapped.

    • Acid-free tissue and soft wrap against original surfaces
    • Movement-sensitive components secured or removed
    • Crating for anything with a vulnerable structure
    • Climate-sensitive items packed with barrier protection against heat and damp

    Customs and documentation for Liechtenstein

    Liechtenstein forms a customs union with Switzerland, so Swiss import formalities apply at the border.

    We prepare the transport documentation and an itemised, valued packing list to travel with the load. Where formal clearance is required we work alongside your broker rather than claiming to replace one.

    Regions we deliver into

    We deliver across Liechtenstein, including Vaduz, Schaan, Balzers and Triesen.

    Frequently asked questions

    How long does antique shipping to Liechtenstein take?

    Transit is typically 2–4 days, routing via Eurotunnel or Dover–Calais, then France, Switzerland or Austria. Economy parcel and groupage services take longer because they run to a network schedule. We give you a band rather than a promise, and we tell you if your deadline is not realistic before you book.

    What does it cost to ship to Liechtenstein?

    Guide prices for this service start at £495. Blanket-wrapped, hand-loaded and delivered into the room where access allows. The final figure depends on collection location, destination, dimensions, weight, declared value, packing complexity, urgency and any special requirements.

    Do I need customs paperwork for Liechtenstein?

    Yes, you should plan for it. Liechtenstein forms a customs union with Switzerland, so Swiss import formalities apply at the border. We prepare the packing list and transport documents; formal clearance is confirmed at quotation.

    How do you protect an original finish?

    Nothing adhesive touches the surface. We use tissue and soft wrap against the piece, blankets over that, and strapping only against protected areas. Where a finish is already fragile we crate rather than wrap.

    Do you handle high-value single items?

    Yes, and we will discuss declared value and cover levels with you before the job so expectations are clear. If the value exceeds what our standard arrangement covers, we will tell you and help you arrange specific cover.
