Work Abroad Tips
The country
The country you choose to move to may well be dictated by your profession and the ability to find suitable employment there - alternatively, if you’re looking for a fairly casual contract of employment your country choice options may be far broader.
Permissions
Depending on the country you herald from and the one in which you’d now like to work, certain visas, permits, permissions and approval may be required to enter the country, reside there and take up a job. Make sure you check out all the requirements before making a commitment to a country and find out whether it’ll be easier for you to get all your permissions if you have an offer of employment already.
Your Qualifications
In some countries many standard university and further education qualifications translate like for like. Some professional qualifications however do not translate and different countries have different standards, working practices and governing bodies that people with certain qualifications operating in certain trades or professions will have to have translated.
Taxation
Don’t forget that some countries have an even more restrictive taxation regime than your own! Check out the rates of tax you’ll be liable for based on the country you’re interested in moving to and the salary you can expect to earn. Remember that as an expatriate living abroad you’re entitled to all the tax breaks offered in your new country of residence and you may also be entitled to more breaks especially if you have to support two households.
