international move
Moving between countries
An international move is a relocation of residence from one country to another, typically involving the shipping of household goods across borders.
The term distinguishes such moves from domestic relocations due to the added complexity of customs, immigration paperwork, and logistics: We're planning an international move to Germany next year.
Moving companies often have dedicated international divisions for these transfers.
