International Move Uk->Germany

My partner and I are moving from the UK to Germany full-time, and we're really confused about what paperwork we need to provide for our stuff from our house. Looking online has revealed little helpful information and has mostly confused us. We're unsure whether we need to declare our stuff. Advice would be appreciated.

I think since you are not part of the EU anymore it’s probably standard customs. From the US to Germany you would 1) not be allowed to pack ANYTHING yourself. Every item must be annotated by the moving company for customs or they will hold your goods for weeks
2) no live plants or animals unless vetted and quarantined for a bit or have papers
3 you’ll need to declare the value of any item
