Dreaming of emigrating? Discover the essential steps for a successful international relocation – from financial planning to cultural integration. Find out more now!
Dreaming of emigrating like a pro? The key to a successful new start abroad lies in careful preparation. Emigration is a complex undertaking that requires thorough planning. It's not just about packing luggage, but much more about building a new life in a foreign country. We at GoMovin understand that this step comes with many questions and uncertainties. That's why we offer you comprehensive relocation assistance, guiding you from the initial planning to your arrival in your new home.
The planning phase is essential. Experts suggest allowing at least six months to a year for preparation. During this time, you should thoroughly familiarize yourself with the visa requirements, the job market, and housing options in your target country. Thorough research helps you develop realistic expectations and identify potential pitfalls early on.
Another important aspect is financial planning. Ensure you have sufficient funds to cover the first few months abroad. It is advisable to plan a financial buffer for unforeseen expenses. Compare the cost of living in your target country with that in Germany to create a realistic budget. Information on financial planning can also be found at Deutsche im Ausland.
In addition to planning and finances, you should also secure an employment contract. Ideally, you already have a job lined up before emigrating. This not only provides financial security but also facilitates integration into the new society. Check whether your qualifications are recognised in the target country, especially if you work in a regulated profession. GoMovin supports you in planning your move and helps you coordinate all necessary steps.
Clarify all legal aspects in a timely manner and overcome bureaucratic hurdles
The legal and bureaucratic aspects of emigration are often complex and time-consuming. Therefore, it is important to familiarise yourself with the relevant regulations early on. GoMovin assists you in taking all necessary steps and overcoming bureaucratic hurdles.
A key point is clarifying the visa and residency requirements. The application processes can be complicated and take a lot of time. Therefore, inform yourself in good time about the specific requirements of your destination country. Proper preparation for the move is crucial to avoid unpleasant surprises.
Before you move, you must deregister in Germany. This should be done about two weeks prior to moving. Please note that even after deregistering, you may still have certain obligations, such as taxes. After your arrival at your destination country, you need to register at your new residence and apply for a tax and social security number.
An international driving licence is also recommended to remain mobile abroad. Have important documents certified and translated so they can be presented if required. GoMovin offers you comprehensive support with all legal and bureaucratic questions regarding your emigration. We ensure that you receive all necessary documents and permits in good time.
