If you are about to move and you have heard about relocation companies, but you don’t know very well what they are about, you have come to the right post. We will inform you what they are, what they are for and how they will make your transfer to your new location easy.
But what is relocation?
Relocation is linked to being moved from one place to another for mainly professional reasons. It applies to the mobility of people in general, who move from one location to another regularly from one country to another.
And a relocation company would be?
A company specialized in managing everything related to your move to another location, either on your own (which the person decides to do and therefore hires the company) or on behalf of a company for which a person is employed.
What services are included?
This will depend on the company, but in general relocation companies have two main areas in which they provide services, migration in case you need it (if the transfer is to another country) and mobility itself which is the advice and assistance in everything necessary for the establishment in the new destination.
Migration
We can emphasize the services in the migratory area, such as the management of visas, work permits, legalization and apostille of documents necessary for the transfer (university degrees, marriage certificate, birth certificate, criminal record), for both the main applicant and his/her family.
Mobility
On the other hand, in the area of mobility we can get services such as advice and accompaniment in the search for housing, hiring and / or change of supplies (such as electricity, water, gas, internet etc.), as well as search for educational institutions for children, among others.
Why would it be useful to hire a company?
Moving is not easy and there are many things to cover, which for a person who is not used to it and / or does not know about the legislation of the country where you will arrive, can complicate, and even in extreme cases, lead to penalties or barriers to enter or stay in the place of destination.
A relocation company will help you with everything necessary giving you the peace of mind needed to make your mobility process easy and without additional surprises to have specialized advisors in all areas.
Can I hire individual services?
Yes, in case you only need support in certain things it is not necessary to hire a relocation company for your whole process, nor they are only available if you are arriving. At any time during your stay, they can advise you. An example of this is in People Global Relocation, where you have packages and services available, even the departure service, in case you are leaving Spain.
