Relocation Agencies - What Services do They Offer?

Hi Samskara

Thank for your inquiry

Many relocation companies offer relocation services to companies rather than individuals. Therefore the first thing you need to do is look for a company that deals with individuals expats.

Other than that find out if the relocation agency is registered with a regional body. This will give you an indication that the relocation company is genuine.

There are three main areas that a relocation agency should cover - Orientation, Accommodation and Administration issues.

Orientation - Introduce you to the shopping and other services in your neighborhood, assist with opening bank accounts, sorting out insurance and finding a language school.

Accommodation - help you to find a house/apartment.

Administration - assist you with understanding visas, residency permits, driving licenses and other official obligations.

In addition you should check if the relocation company help you with translation services for official documents, introduction to schools and arranging pre-natal facilities.

It is recommended that you check a few relocation agencies, compare the packages or deals they offer and close a deal with the one that you think is the most professional and offer all the services you need.

Good Luck
Sharon
