The Relocation Journey Map: 3 Simple Phases
Your relocation unfolds in three clear stages. We support you through every step.
PHASE 1 — MOVE
Before You Leave Your Current Home
We prepare everything you need before you board your flight — so you arrive in India knowing exactly what happens next.
What Happens in Phase 1:
We guide you through visa preparation for you and your dependents. You get document checklists and help preparing FRRO requirements — so nothing is missed. |
A short visit to see neighborhoods, schools, and daily life before you commit. You meet our team, see properties, and understand what life in India looks like. |
We explain your new city before you arrive: safe neighborhoods, commute times, where to find international schools, healthcare, and daily essentials. Whether you are moving to Mumbai, Bangalore, Delhi NCR, Pune, Chennai, or Hyderabad — we give you the local knowledge you need. |
We understand your housing needs and pre-screen properties. You learn how rentals work in India — deposits, agreements, and what to expect from landlords. |
We explain Indian, IB, British, and international school options. You understand admissions timelines and which schools match your child's needs. |
You and your HR team get access to track every task, timeline, and update in one place. Full visibility from start to finish. |
Your Experience in Phase 1:
You know what to expect
Your timeline is clear
You feel prepared, not anxious
Your employer sees progress in real time
PHASE 2 — LAND
Your First Days in India
The first days in a new country are the hardest. You do not know where to buy groceries, how to get a SIM card, or which neighborhoods are safe.
We support you during this critical time — so you are not figuring it out alone.
Your Experience in Phase 2:
You are supported from the moment you arrive
You have someone by your side in an unfamiliar place
Your adjustment is smoother and calmer
Your family feels safe and informed
Arrival Support
We meet you at your temporary accommodation (depending on your package) and help you settle into your first days in India.
School Visits (for families)
We schedule school visits, explain each curriculum, and support you through early admissions steps — so your children feel settled too.
Local Orientation (in-person)
We show you supermarkets, healthcare clinics, banks, ATMs, and transport options. You get a local SIM card, learn about cost of living, and understand daily routines.
Daily Essentials Setup
We help you stock groceries, set up household basics, and learn which apps and services make life easier. You understand cultural norms for daily interactions.
Home Search (in-person property viewings)
We schedule viewings and accompany you to each property. You see safe, expat-friendly neighborhoods and get honest guidance on choosing the right home.
PHASE 3 — LIVE
Settling Into Life in India
Once you have a home and your family is settled, we help you adjust to daily life — and stay with you throughout your entire assignment.
From FRRO registration to tenancy management to departure planning, we are here until the day you leave India.
What Happens in Phase 3:
Home Finalization
We review your lease, coordinate your move-in, and help with utilities and building requirements — so you start your life in India smoothly.
FRRO Registration & Compliance
We guide you through the documents required, help prepare online applications, and schedule appointments. We support dependents, police verification, C-Forms, and tenant verification.
School Settling-In
We support you through final enrollment steps and help you understand school expectations. Follow-up assistance is available as needed.
Tenancy Management
We support you throughout your stay — helping with landlord communication, guidance on renewals, and understanding rent expectations.
Cultural & Language Support
We offer optional help understanding cultural norms and basic language guidance — so daily interactions feel more comfortable.
Departure Services (when your assignment ends)
We support your move-out, help close utilities, assist with deposit settlements, guide RP transfers or exit permits, and coordinate with your next destination.
