Shipping & Moving from Crete to Israel
Israel is one of the closest international destinations we serve — a short run across the eastern Mediterranean. Households, parcels and Cretan products travel the route in both directions.
Sea and Air, Both Short
Shipments travel by sea in shared or full containers, or fly for urgent and smaller consignments. The distances are small by our standards; the concrete time window comes with your quote.
Customs Depends on Your Status
Israel treats household goods differently depending on who is importing them — new residents, returning residents and visitors are not handled the same way. We align the paperwork with your case before loading, and our partner agents in Israel handle clearance and delivery to the door.
Food and Cretan Products
Olive oil, wine, honey and other Cretan foods can travel to Israel with the right declarations; commercial food imports carry their own requirements at destination. Tell us what you're sending and to whom — we confirm what applies before you pay anything.
Both Directions
The route runs both ways: moves from Israel back to Crete and the rest of Greece go through the same partner agents, with the same door-to-door handling.
Common Questions
Can I send olive oil to Israel?
Personal quantities generally travel with the right declaration; commercial imports have their own requirements. We confirm what applies before you ship.
Do people moving to Israel pay duty on household goods?
Israel has arrangements for the household goods of people arriving to live there, with conditions tied to residence status. We confirm how they apply to your case at quote stage.
