Work Permits:

This is available in the form of a visa and working
permit. A visa is a legal document issued by a country allowing the individual
holding it to enter the country for a predetermined amount of time. Working
without a visa or work permit is illegal.
Before
arriving in your country you must obtain this documentation from the intended
destination’s Embassy that is accredited to your current country.
In some cases, those moving for work related
purposes may have the employer organize the Visa. Further information and entry
requirements can be provided by the intended country.

your visa well in advance before your intended departure, as it may take
several months for a visa or work permit to be approved. This will be one of

destination. Every country is different and unique.
 |

> There have been recommendations suggesting a pre-move visit to view
the housing markets and job prospects; however this is not always possible nor
is it particularly feasible.
> If however the aforementioned is a possibility, visiting your possible future destination will give you the opportunity to view the cultures and customs associated with this new country.
> Start by researching information available on the internet. Here you will find a broad range of information on any topic you care to learn about. Try participating in an online forum.

level and required security measures of your particular country.

variety of work exists in most countries. This chapter will provide you with
information on finding jobs and evaluating how suitable they will be for your
situation.
> Firstly,
decide what it is you require in a job. Will you be building on previous skills
or starting something new? How long will you be planning to work for?
There are several different ways in which an individual may search for work overseas.
> The most common method of seeking employment is to do it yourself rather than rely on an agency. Start searching for work over the internet. If you begin searching after you have moved to your intended destination, try searching in local newspapers.
> As you are offered
positions, it is important you evaluate them carefully before you accept.
Whilst attending interviews feel free to ask as many questions of them as they
of you.
> If you are still in your original location (i.e. have not yet moved to your new destination) it may be worthwhile to let your lawyer inspect the contract.

> Avoid jobs offering quick easy money- this is particularly true for women as these jobs often turn out to be prostitution rings.
> Organizations aimed at helping people find work overseas exist, and are particularly beneficial as they eliminate the need to thoroughly investigate and research job opportunities and in many cases may organize visas, work permits and accommodation for the successful applicant.
> If you hold
a professional qualification it may be worth applying for work via the
submission of your resume to a recruitment agency. As above, these eliminate
the need for intense research into the job or company and may also provide the
required documentation for working overseas.
> Before
arriving at your intended destination, plan ahead and take extra copies of your
resumes and other relevant documentation in order to pursue other types of
employment abroad. This will be one of many
4: Renting or Buying Abroad
An individual
may choose to move abroad for many reasons. One may be required to work or
study even move over for family or personal reasons.
 |
| Traveling Abroad First Time |
> Having a
friend or family member in your country of destination is always beneficial, as
they may be able to help in the difficult task of finding and consequently
renting or buying property.
> If you do
not have a friend or relative currently in your intended destination do not
stress, just be extra cautious whilst searching for your home.
> For those moving for work or study related purposes, you may have already been offered accommodation. If accommodation is not offered, be prepared- it may be difficult to find suitable accommodation, so allow yourself plenty of time. This will be one of many tips for traveling abroad first time.
> Request references if necessary. If it is
possible you may request to speak to people who have previously done business
with the company.
> Ask as many
people as possible for advice, particularly any contacts in your future
destination. Remember, this will be your new home so it is important that you
find a location you can be happy and comfortable with.
Whilst there is
no typical process when buying or renting abroad, there are some basic steps
that may give you an idea of how to proceed.
> Find
an estate agent:
Look for someone who makes an effort to determine your
areas of interest, your budget and your needs. Obtaining an estate agent will
allow you to view a variety of locations in which to buy or rent. The estate
agent should also be able to provide you with further contacts to aid you in
the later stages of purchasing or renting your home.
> View
the property:
During this stage it is important to remain objective
and keep an open mind. Do not fall in love at first sight. Gather as much
information about the property as possible.

> Sign the preliminary contract and make a deposit: Once a price has
been agreed on a preliminary contract is required.
> Before signing anything it is recommended that you obtain the services of a lawyer in your intended destination, to offer another opinion and ensure all proceedings are legal. Your estate agent may try to persuade you that a lawyer is not necessary and that they will be able to take care of all aspects of the deal. This will be one of many tips for traveling abroad first time.
> Obtaining the services of a lawyer would be more beneficial as the
estate agent does not have the correct qualifications to aid you in the legal
and financial side of buying or renting your home. The representative embassy
in your new location will be able to provide you with a list of lawyers from
which to choose.
If you elect to not employ the services of
a lawyer, ensure the following:
a) The land on which your home is being built is fully paid for. Some
developers may borrow against the land and in the event that they become
bankrupt the local authorities will reclaim this land and consequently your
house.
b) If you are purchasing a property that requires
renovations, ensure you thoroughly check planning laws to ensure that
renovations are allowed on your property.
C) Ensure the previous owner had no debts, as these may become your
responsibility.
D) If you intend to rent your home, be sure that this is legal.
