How it works
If you’ve ever sent a parcel abroad or bought something from overseas, you’ll know that customs clearance is a difficult-to-navigate minefield, and costs can quickly add up.
That’s why our professional in-house team of customs handlers is ready to help you with everything you need for a stress-free shipping experience. Our experts have in-depth knowledge of specific customs laws from each country, helping you dot the ‘i’s and cross the ‘t’s on your paperwork and ensuring your shipment arrives safely.
Plus, our Dartford HQ became a fully customs-bonded facility in early 2023, meaning we can safely store your belongings in our own warehouse and keep track of them throughout the entire shipping process. You’re in safe hands with Matthew James.

One of the Mediterranean’s best-kept secrets is undoubtedly Corsica. Some 1,000kms from the mainland capital of Paris, in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, is the indisputably beautiful island of Corsica. French in language but Italian in style, Corsica offers expats a slower place of life amongst stunning natural surroundings. Moving to Corsica enables you have your own little slice of this captivating island – but don’t go telling everyone, it’s still a secret!
At Matthew James Removals we offer regular services to and from Corsica, throughout the year. From dedicated removals to shared-loads or even single items, we offer a service to meet your requirements.

Please speak to your designated Move Manager who can guide you through this process and advise you accordingly.
Birthplace of Napoleon, Corsica has a rich and varied history. Originally belonging to Italy and occupied by Britain at several points in its recent history – and even the USA in the Second World War – Corsica has developed its own distinctive culture and dialect. From the bustling capital of Bastia in the north of the island to the breath-taking coastlines of the west and south, Corsica has something for everyone. This picturesque island offers expats an incredible variety of golden beaches, towering mountain ranges, untouched forests and peaceful lakes, all waiting to be explored by you.
Although around 2 million tourists are attracted to Corsica each year, tourism has not spoiled the island. The main resorts do get busy in the holiday season but there are still plenty of mountain towns, sleepy villages and vacant beaches for you to enjoy.
Moving around Corsica is easy and enjoyable as there are no complicated roads and everywhere you drive is so scenic. Corsica is also easily accessible by air and has four airports in the towns of Calvi, Bastia, Figari and Ajaccio. The cheapest and easiest way to get to Corsica is by sea. This way you can admire the stunning Corscian coastline and enjoy the refreshing Mediterranean Sea breeze aboard one of its regular ferry services from Italy.
Once you have moved to Corsica, you will need to apply for residency at your local town hall (or Commune – Ufficio Anagrafe). This will enable you to apply for permanent residency in Corsica after 5 years if you are a EU or EEA citizen. It is also important to obtain your Italian tax code (or codice fiscale), which you can acquire from the Italian Consulate. This tax code is crucial to living in Corsica and is necessary for many day-to-day tasks, such as opening bank accounts, finding a job, setting up a phone line and buying a car. For further information on the admin involved in moving to Corsica please visit the UK government’s guide to living in Italy here.
