What should you pack?

To ensure that your trip goes smoothly, it’s crucial to bring your personal documents with you. Also think about packing practical everyday items and items that have personal meaning to you.

Important documents

Be sure to bring documents such as your driving licence, your ID card and your bank account number, as well as a copy of your birth certificate and marriage certificate.

Practical items

Bring enough money for the first few weeks. Don’t forget things like clothes, sheets, blankets, pillows, and your toothbrush.

You should also bring some personal items that have sentimental value to you, as well as devices like your smartphone or tablet.
