Shipping to Santa Cruz de Tenerife
Santa Cruz is the capital of Tenerife and the main port of the western Canary Islands, serving Tenerife, La Palma, La Gomera and El Hierro.
Practical tips. Imports pay the local IGIC tax instead of VAT, and household goods of new residents are normally exempt with an inventory and proof of residence. Tenerife is mountainous, with Mount Teide in the centre, and roads to the south and west coasts can be slow, so plan delivery time.
Consignees on the smaller western islands collect in Santa Cruz and continue by ferry. The island's large expatriate community means local movers are experienced with international shipments.
Tenerife has two airports with frequent flights to Europe.
The port lies next to the city centre, so collection is quick.
