My wife and I both came to live in Portugal and took up residency in the 90's and imported our household and personal effects including a car. No import duties were charged on these items. (the car had the usual charges to get it matriculated here). We are still resident here. A few years back we also bought a holiday house in Canada, furnished it and bought cars there too.
If we shipped all the Canadian household and personal effects and cars to Portugal to furnish a second home here would we pay import tax on these items?
Any one know?
