Whichever country you're moving from, relocating to the UK involves the same core building blocks: sorting your visa, finding somewhere to live, opening a bank account, registering with a GP, and — if you need one — getting mobile with a car.

We've distilled the process into a practical checklist, backed up by our free guides covering everything from driving rules to renting a flat, and hands-on support wherever you'd rather have an expert handle the details.

Whether you're relocating for a new job, to be closer to family, or simply for a change of scenery, we can be as involved as you need us to be — from a single introduction through to a fully managed move.

FAQs

Common questions

What's the first thing I should sort out before moving to the UK?

Your visa or right to work, if applicable — everything else (housing, banking, schools) depends on knowing your immigration status and timeline.

Do I need a UK address to open a bank account?

Some banks require proof of a UK address, though several now offer accounts to pre-arrivals with an employment offer or tenancy agreement — see our banking guide.

Can I bring my pet to the UK?

Yes, with the right preparation — vaccinations, microchipping and, depending on your origin country, blood tests are usually required well in advance. See our pet relocation guide.

Do you help with employer-sponsored relocations?

Yes, we regularly work alongside corporate relocation packages to fill in the gaps and manage the details HR teams don't always have time for.
