GLOBAL INTERNATIONAL RELOCATION was the first 100% Portuguese mobility company. Founded in 2008, we achieved market leadership nationwide by 2014, with full-country coverage and facilities in Lisbon, Porto, the Algarve, Madeira, and the Azores.
Our services include: Mobility (Immigration and Relocation) | International Moving | Pet Transport | Fine Arts Logistics | Fairs and Events.
We are proud to be the only Portuguese company that is a member of OMNI — a prestigious global network of leading relocation and international moving companies.
Experience and Uniqueness
At Global International Relocation, we do what no other company in Portugal can: we deliver a fully integrated mobility experience under one roof, with a single point of contact and no outsourcing hassle.
While most companies in the market offer one or two services and rely on third-party providers for the rest, we’ve built something different — and better. We manage the entire process ourselves: Immigration & Legal, Relocation & Settling-in, International Moving & Logistics, Pet Relocation & Family Support. We are the only company in Portugal capable of offering this full end-to-end service — with our own in-house teams, certified processes, and a dedicated expert managing the client relationship from start to finish.
The result? Faster responses, fewer errors, greater accountability, and a truly personalised service experience. Our clients trust us with their most critical relocations — from C-level executives to entire project teams — because we don’t just move people; we move lives, families, and futures.
What sets us apart:
- Global mindset, local expertise – Proudly based in Portugal, we operate to international standards with a global client base.
- One team, total control – No sub-contracting. No miscommunication. Just seamless execution.
- We even move your pets with care and compliance – Because for many, they’re the most precious cargo of all.
- Tech-enabled, human-centred – Our platforms and reporting tools are as strong as our empathy and attention to detail.
With over two decades of experience, FAIM Plus certification, and the only OMNI membership in Portugal, we don’t just follow best practices — we set them.
When it comes to mobility, ‘Global’ is not just our name. It’s how we think. It’s how we deliver.
Typical Customer
Our typical customers in Porto are mostly multinational companies that recruit new staff members from other European countries, as well as from Brazil, Angola, India, Pakistan, and Egypt, just to name a few. They usually use our Immigration, Relocation, and Moving services to ensure their new staff experience a smooth, legal, and comfortable arrival in Portugal.
We are also seeing an increase in private foreign clients and families who decide to move to Portugal (from the USA or other European countries, for instance). They trust us with their entire mobility process, from A to Z — from handling immigration bureaucracy to transporting their goods, pets, and works of art.
G.I.R. is everything you need, in a single provider!
