Expatica's expertise and thorough knowledge of our audience is demonstrated by what we call the ‘expat lifecycle’. We have developed a clear four step schedule, which any individual follows when he or she becomes an expat.
Orientation: Before arriving in the country of residence, he/she looks for information online. The HR department of his/her company does the same. Many of the important decisions an expat makes (i.e. finding a relocation firm, finding a house and finding a job) are often made before arrival in the new country.
Settling in: This begins when an expat first arrives and arranges his/her new life abroad. At this stage, an expat searches for highly localised information (i.e. regarding taxation, banking and local utility providers) to settle into life in a new land.
Living in: The most important concern for an expat at this stage is to socialise and get involved in the daily life of a new culture. This is the time to connect with other expats on a social level.
Moving on: As with the orientation stage, this is when the expat researches local service providers. They are preparing themselves to move on and are also likely to be searching for information on yet another country.
