I expected a lot more replies as I am sure I am not the only one in that situation ... so thank you very much PsyGuy for your answer. Very much appreciated

Good morning/afternoon,
I am going to move from Europe to the UAE this summer and I am desperately looking for some information from teachers who did go through this. I read that it is advised not to ship any schools books as they can be held at the customs and worse case scenario, I will never see them again. Could you please advise on this and tell me which company you have used to move your belongings.
Thank you very much
