In general, you will need to plan for your overseas relocation at least three or four months in advance. This will give you time to gather up important documents such as passports and visas. In most cases, you will need both a passport as well as a work visa. You need to check with the country you are relocating to in order to find out their requirements to be employed in their country. You also should find out what is required in order for your family members to accompany you. Individual countries might have additional requirements such as immunizations, medical exams or copies of birth certificates or marriage licenses.
You also need to become familiar with your options regarding transportation in your new country. It might be that you need to obtain a new driver’s license. The rules vary depending on country, so check ahead of time if you are going to need to utilize a car to get around.
