FAQ

Questions, answered.

How Expats & Nomads works, what it costs, and what we do (and don't) do.

FAQ
Are you a law firm?

No. Expats & Nomads is a relocation planning service. We don't give legal or tax advice and we don't represent you before any authority. When a point in your case needs a legal or tax opinion, we say so clearly and can introduce you to a qualified professional.

Do you guarantee visa approval?

No, and nobody honestly can. We identify routes worth exploring based on the information you give us and the published requirements. A qualified professional confirms eligibility, and the relevant authority makes the final decision.

Can I use the plan and do everything myself?

Yes, that's one of the main reasons it exists. Your plan shows what to do, in what order, and which documents you'll need. It also marks the open points that should be confirmed by a professional before you act on them.

Can you introduce me to lawyers or tax advisers?

Yes. We work with vetted specialists in Spain and Portugal: immigration, tax and accounting, Social Security, property and rentals, mortgages, health insurance, banking, and company or freelancer setup. In Dubai, we connect freelancers and independent contractors with vetted UAE providers for residency, Emirates ID, work permits and freelancer setup.

Do I have to use your experts?

No. Your plan is yours, and you can use it with any professional you choose.

Is the $129 credited toward a larger plan?

Yes. If you continue to the full Personal Relocation Plan, your $129 is credited, so you pay $349 in total for the Standard Plan or $590 in total for the Complex Plan.

Which countries do you support?

Spain, Portugal and Dubai (UAE). In Dubai, we focus on residency and freelancer setup for freelancers and independent contractors. If you're considering somewhere else, mention it in the questionnaire and we'll tell you honestly whether we can help.

Can you help with only one part of the move?

Yes. If you only need, say, a tax adviser or help with a rental, tell us in the questionnaire and we'll suggest the simplest way to get it. For a single question, there's also Ask An Expert ($49).

What if my case is unusual?

Tell us anyway. Unusual cases are where a plan helps most. If, after reading your questionnaire, we think the Assessment isn't the right starting point for you, we'll say so before you pay anything.
