Relocating to the United States offers opportunities in career, education, lifestyle, and cultural diversity — whether that's New York for business, California for the sunshine, or the Midwest for family life. We specialise in complex international moves, making the transition as smooth and secure as possible.
US entry is document-heavy and the rules are unforgiving. Get these right and the rest of the move is logistics.
The U.S. has strict and detailed visa categories depending on the purpose of your move: work visas (H-1B, L-1, O-1), investor or entrepreneur visas (E-2, EB-5), student visas (F-1, J-1), and Green Cards for permanent residency. Each category has specific requirements and timelines. Dalmatica Mobility Group can connect you with trusted immigration consultants if needed.
Ensure all passports are valid for at least 6 months. Gather certified documents such as birth and marriage certificates, diplomas and transcripts, work references and employment letters, and vaccination and medical records.

Client stories
We have been trusted by thousands of customers based on our years of provided industry-best service.
I moved from Spain to South Africa and I was very nervous about sending my personal things so far with limited experience in knowing which companies I should use. I called many companies but none would assist me due to my small shipment of just 10 boxes, all ranging different sizes. But Dalmatica Mobility Group came to my rescue. They sent George right to my front door; he handled my things with care, was professional, proficient, patient and very kind. My things arrived in perfect timing, in the same exact way I sent them. There was no damage to any of my things and the outsourced company they partnered with in South Africa was professional, very kind and delivered my boxes with care. I am very happy with Dalmatica Mobility Group and would surely use them again. Thanks George and DMG. You made my move a smooth process.
Send 2 shipments with them one after another. First my 6 boxes from Austria to Dubai and then my wive's 19 boxes also from Austria to Dubai. Worked well 2 times. Bogdan was always super helpful and things went well. Of course don't expect the import customs people to work fast, just make sure you plan ahead and that you don't need things from the boxes too fast. But within 1-2 months they arrived and we are super happy.
We moved 2 crates containing mostly paintings and some delicate items of ceramic and stone. These crates required pickup, storage awaiting containerisation, shipping, customs and shipping to our address. Everything went very easy and we appreciate the service provided. We would have no hesitation to recommend Dalmatica Mobility to anyone requiring shipping.
We used Dalmatica Group to ship out entire house from the Netherlands to South Africa. We are extremely happy with the service, would use them again, and recommend them to anyone looking to move their posessions overseas. The communication was amazing - Ulas and Bogdan are available around the clock for comms, and the teams who packed and unpacked our things were extremely professional and caring. Thanks Dalmatica!!! 5-star service!
