Your climate differs quite a bit from ours here in the US. Another thing to consider will be the types of herbs that you have. Some are annual, and require yearly planting. In this case, it is best to let them die off for the year. Some are annuals, and will have a different care routine depending on the exact plant in question.

Most of your country resides in the equivalent to our zones 7 through 9. Many perennial herbs will survive, outdoors, with little help.

What I can do, in the meantime, is point you to some articles that will help you with the general care of potted herbs.
