Expats / Expatriate
An expatriate or expat is someone temporarily or permanently
residing in a country and culture other than that of their upbringing
or legal residence.
The term is often used in the context of Westerners living in non-Western
countries, although it is also used to describe Westerners living
in other Western countries, such as Australians living in the United
Kingdom, or Britons living in Spain.
Expatriate can just as well be used to describe any person living
in a country other than where they hold citizenship, but it not
used for government officials stationed in a foreign country.

About relocations
A relocation happens when a member of the family
is moving to work abroad (diplomats, managers etc.) An agency (a.k.a
relocation company) providing relocations directs and manages the
process of relocations including arranging necessary documents (visa,
long-term stay permissions), finding a new house (accommodation),
finding a school for children (education), finding a job for the
partner (work) and arranging a teacher for the family. (language
teaching). Business relocations include founding
a new company based in a new country (governmental permissions,
official documents etc.), renting a new office space, hiring workers.
No need for a relocation company, you just want to find
and compare international movers?
We also offer free quotes from
international movers for your move abroad.
But, most expats need a relocation company for their move.
