Moving to Florida: What You Need to Know
Florida is one of the top destinations for Québécois snowbirds and permanent emigrants alike, with popular hubs in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Tampa, and Cape Coral. The Sunshine State offers warm weather year-round, no state income tax, and a large French-speaking community — over 150,000 Québécois have settled in the Miami–Fort Lauderdale area alone, earning the nickname 'Floribec.'
A Montreal–Florida move is an international relocation that crosses the Canada–US border, typically at Champlain, NY or Saint-Armand, QC. PMG handles all the necessary customs documentation, including the CBP Form 3299 (Declaration for Free Entry of Unaccompanied Articles) and a detailed household goods inventory. Your belongings are exempt from US import duties when establishing permanent residency, but proper paperwork is essential.
Key planning points: Florida has no provincial or state equivalent to Quebec's TPS/TVQ, but customs rules require that items be owned for at least one year before import duty-free. Electronics, vehicles, and firearms each have specific import requirements. PMG coordinates with a licensed US customs broker to ensure your shipment clears the border without delays. Allow 5–8 business days from Montreal for delivery to South Florida.
