WHAT OUR LOCAL LIVING GUIDES COVER
A Practical Guide to Life in Your New Country
Every Local Living Guide is carefully created to help you understand the culture, daily routines, expectations, and essential lifestyle considerations of your destination country. Designed by relocation experts and global partners, these guides provide broad, trustworthy information so newcomers can build confidence long before they arrive.

How Our Customs Guides Help When You're Planning an International Move
Customs requirements differ widely across countries and can be difficult to navigate. Our guides simplify the rules—explaining how each category (household goods, vehicles, pets, alcohol, and restricted items) is reviewed by customs authorities in different countries. This gives you a broad understanding before your shipment leaves origin.
If you ever need detailed clarification, our import specialists are here to help.
