I have just received a list from our relocation company, (which they received from Uruvan in Montevideo). Amongst the items we may not bring are; household appliances, small tools and jewelry. Is this the experience of others who have moved to Uruguay? Our appliances are the same voltage as Uruguay. Any input will be gladly welcome! >>The response to your question on the forum (http://www.sociedadsouthron.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=627&hilit=) is much more in line with the information I have been given.   The relocation company probably checked with the consulate and they are notorious from WRONG INFORMATION more often than not. --The Southron What may we bring?

But we have also found some information specifically on debtal insurance. Please see: http://www.saosegurodental.com/planes/index.php. Please NOTE: I cannot vouch for that site. We will try to get more information.When looking at prices, remember to divide by 24 to get Yankee Dollars. At that rate, the annual plan indicated on this page ios less than USD67.00.
