There are many things to consider when moving abroad and advance preparations to ensure a smooth transition. In helping you with your planning, we have provided some information on key items and resources that you might need, in order to make things easier for you.
Unless you are citizen of the country you are moving to, you may require a visa or work permit. You should also contact the embassy of the country you are moving to for details on their visa requirements. To find a list of embassies and their contact details, you can visit the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website.
Make sure you allow sufficient time for processing process all the necessary travel documents and check that your passport has a validity of at least six months.
Relocation companies based in the country you are moving to, can help you find suitable accommodation. In addition, if you are interested in purchasing property overseas, we can refer your request to our colleagues with other HSBC group offices.
Contact our International Banking Centre on +673 2 252 252 or by email for more information on loans in countries where HSBC has a presence.
Make sure you compile a list of the items that you want to ship overseas and ensure that you have copies of your travel documents stored in a safe place. You should also consider getting insurance coverage for the shipment of your belongings to safeguard against any potential losses or damage.
Schooling and education are important factors of any overseas move, especially crucial if you have children. You could also contact the country's government education department for more information on their education system.
