    Pre-Move Consultation

    Your international relocation journey will start with a pre-move consultation.

    This will enable our advisers to fully understand your individual needs and requirements for your move, including the amount of work required, the expected timeline, and a realistic budget for the entire process.

    During the consultation, we will conduct an in-depth assessment of all aspects of the move to determine how best we can assist with the move and the total sum of work that will need doing.

    We will also work with you to better understand your expectations of the move and how best we can meet those with our planning and management services.

    Pre-move consultations and surveys are a key part to ensuring that the move itself goes according to plan. With our expert planners and logistics managers, you can be assured that your move will be managed with precision and minimal fuss.

    Immigration Assessments

    Immigration compliance can be one of the most important and yet time-consuming parts of moving abroad. Visas and permits can often take several months to process, and trying to determine which ones are right for you and your family members can be a laborious process.

    However, IAS are here to help. We draw from our years’ worth of experience in the international immigration sector to ensure that every move we oversee is fully compliant and prepared for international immigration requirements, regardless of the destination.

    We can:

    • Identify the most suitable visas or permits for you and your family for your destination country
    • Organise work permits so you’re able to undertake work or do business in your new country
    • Oversee the entire application process and advise on best practices and common mistakes to avoid
    • Help to organise and submit key documents during the process
    • Track processing to ensure that it is completed on time and liaise with immigration officials if needed
    • Assist with customs and border requirements
    • Organise citizenship, settlement or nationality applications

    With our planning and relocation packages, you can ensure that you get things right the first time. Call us for a free consultation today on +44 (0)333 414 9244 or reach out to us online.

    Relocation Costs and Budget Planning

    International relocations can be extremely expensive, particularly if you have a significant number of heavy or bulky items that need to be transported. 

    For this reason, it’s imperative that you have a well-planned out budget right from the start of the process in order to more effectively plan out your finances and to ensure that you have funds set aside for any unexpected hurdles you might face, especially considering the complexity of the logistics involved.

    With IAS’ relocation and financial planners, we will draw up a realistic and comprehensive budget for your move, taking into consideration all key factors that might influence the final outcome. We will also explore as many options as possible to keep costs low while still ensuring that you receive the high standard of service your move will deserve.

    Financial planning and budgeting for an international move is significantly easier with the help of capable and professional experts on your side. For a free consultation on your move, call us on +44 (0)333 414 9244 today or reach out to us online.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    If you’re looking to move internationally on a budget, there are a number of options you can explore to help minimise costs.

    For example, slower shipping and logistics options such as sea freight will often represent a better choice cost-wise than air options. 

    Moving can also often be cheaper at certain times of the year, so planning far ahead in advance of when to move can make a big difference.

    Finally, you may wish to investigate how much you’ll plan to bring with you and see if there are any items that you could possibly let go instead of bringing with you. Shipping becomes more expensive the heavier and larger your items are, so letting go of inessential items can sometimes make all the difference in terms of saving costs.

    Yes, due to the complexity of managing a process such as international relocation, it can be common to hire professional relocation services for the process. The benefits of doing so are significant, including (but not limited to) a faster and more efficient moving process overall, guarantees on the safety of your belongings while being transported, and expert advice on how to handle the process and minimise unexpected errors or surprises.

    Saima Jabeen was extremely helpful during my advice session. She gave clear guidance and followed up with a detailed advice letter. Farhine Chowdhury was assigned as my caseworker, and provided me expert support and advice throughout the process. I am pleased to have made use of IAS' services.

    I could book a non-urgent appointment within 2 weeks. The person on the phone was very kind to go through multiple available dates with me and finalise the booking for the entire 5-10m. The person on the video-call was knowledgeable, highlighting points that I had overlooked, despite gathering and reflecting on my information for quite a while. I'm still using that advice today.
    I had a very good contact and their advice were clear.
    I highly recommend IAS. Thanks to Anne Liu who has been utterly professional yet a wealth of expertise. Always a polite and approachable case lawyer, with remarkable both customer service and efficient assistance in the whole process for a successful visa application.

    Laura Christian has been very helpful in giving me advice and the information I needed. Immigration law is very strict and confusing, but this service breaks it down in manageable chunks and hiring them makes the application process a lot smoother and without too much stress.

    I would like to thank Mark for taking the time to review my case and provide detailed legal advice. He was professional, respectful and took the time to explain the relevant immigration options and limitations clearly. I would also like to mention that my initial contact with IAS was with Nadeen Taylor. From the beginning, I explained that my main concern was not simply obtaining a Student visa, but finding a possible lawful way to leave Gaza and continue my studies in the UK. I specifically asked whether IAS could assist with this particular aspect of my situation, and I was reassured that this could be looked into. While the advice I ultimately received clarified a number of important points, I had hoped that the specific issue of possible evacuation from Gaza, including whether there might be an exceptional or alternative legal mechanism, could be explored further. Overall, I appreciate Mark’s professionalism and the time he spent considering my circumstances. I am grateful for the assistance provided and for the clarity of the advice I received.

    I am incredibly grateful to Clare for all the support and hard work she has given me throughout my asylum case. After everything I have been through, receiving my Visa was an incredibly emotional and unforgettable moment for me. Clare was always patient, supportive and understanding, and she stood by me throughout a very difficult period of my life. I truly appreciate all the time, effort and care she put into my case. Her support meant more to me than I can put into words, and I will never forget her kindness. Thank you so much, Clare, for everything you have done for me. ❤️

    Ms Saimah Razzaq assisted me in successfully obtaining my wife's settlement, having helped on her prior visas also. She has always been professional, efficient and helpful in advising exactly what documents and other information is required that she then checks prior to finally submitting the application. She will answer any questions that you you may have, and gives feedback along the way. I can highly recommend Saimah to assist you.

    5/5 Stars — Exellant service "I cannot thank Saima Razzaq enough for all her hard work and support throughout our ILR application process. From start to finish she was professional, patient, and kept us updated every step of the way. We faced delays and extra checks due to being self-employed, which made the process longer and more stressful than expected. Saima was there through it all — giving clear advice, helping us chase things up, and guiding us on making formal complaints and claiming a refund when the service took far longer than promised. She fought our corner properly and never gave up. My husband has now had his application approved and we are absolutely over the moon. We couldn’t have got here without Saima’s help. If you need assistance with immigration applications, Saima Razzaq is the person to go to. Thank you so much!"

    My immigration enquiry was rather unusual and complex. I spoke to Mark Rigby an Immigration Advice Lawyer who was patient, understanding and offered clear, detailed advice. A comprehensive explanation of future procedures required and associated fees was given. This conversation was helpful and reassuring.

    Working with Abdul on our spouse visa extension has been an absolute pleasure. He’s been incredibly professional and meticulous with our paperwork. He helped us navigate the complex process of visa extension and moved so quickly whenever we needed extra help - even drafting custom letters to prove my right to work and rent while we wait for the decision. His warm, collaborative approach made this process incredibly easy. I can't thank him enough and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a brilliant immigration lawyer!
