Britons are desperate to move abroad – Report from Robinsons

A new survey has revealed that young Britons are keen to escape overseas for more opportunities, better living standards and cheaper taxation. The survey commissioned by Foreign Currency Direct found that 58 per cent would go abroad for a better work life balance than what they can achieve in the UK.

Over twelve hundred British workers across the UK were surveyed to determine how large a percentage of the British population is dissatisfied with their life in the UK, and would they contemplate escaping this ‘great’ nation of ours for a new life elsewhere.  

Almost a quarter of the twelve hundred British workforce questioned by the survey are already actively considering moving abroad within the next two year, to live and work somewhere where they can have better quality of life potentially, where they can enjoy the expat tax advantages potentially available to them, and where they can perhaps even enjoy cheaper living costs.

And the largest numbers of those actively planning an escape were in the 18-30 brackets. As a result of the hike of tax to 50 per cent, 31 per cent of those surveyed declared that they would go abroad to seek out better taxation advantages. In fact, out of the over 60’s age group surveyed, 40 per cent advised that they would contemplate moving abroad to save tax on their pension payments.

With so many of us considering that big move abroad, many of us forget the reams of paperwork and tasks that need to be complete before setting sale. Moving all your personal belongings abroad can be a stressful and drawn out process and can often put people off moving abroad at all.

International removals ‘booming’ say relocation specialists Robinsons

International removals ‘booming’ say relocation specialists Robinsons

International removals are continuing to boom despite a decline in the housing market here in the UK, according to relocation specialists Robinsons.

The firm, one of the UK’s leading experts in house moves and corporate relocations, says the number of people seeking to emigrate has grown steadily in recent years, continuing to make international removals one of the most popular services it offers. Ian Brown, Robinson’s Head of International Moving, said: “International removals has been a big part of our business for the last 40 years and we have noticed an increase in growth particularly over the last five or six years.

“We’re still getting a large number of inquiries from people who are looking to move overseas, even though the housing market is slow here. Australia has always been the most popular destination, closely followed by Canada and New Zealand.

“People think it’s a big upheaval to move abroad, but from a removals point of view it isn’t much different to moving house in the UK. We simply pack people’s furniture and belongings in shipping container and then we have partners worldwide who unload and deliver at the other side.”

To reflect the growing interest in moving abroad, Robinsons have put a new checklist on their website, http://www.robinsons-intl.com/, for anyone who is planning to emigrate.

The guide, called Your route to a new life, counts down from 18 months, to 12 months, six months, three months and then one month before the move. It recommends going on a fact finding trip and includes tips on paperwork that needs to be completed, medicals and other checks and sorting out finances.

Some of the more unusual tips include:

•             Helping children get to know pupils in their destination country by arranging an online chat through the schools

•             Cleaning outdoor furniture ready for removal, as any items covered in soil are not allowed through customs

•             Setting up social networking accounts to stay in touch with friends and family after the move.

Robinsons’ website also features country guides for Australia, Canada, New Zealand, USA and South Africa, frequently asked questions and customs information. All emigrating clients get their own international move manager who co-ordinates the whole moving process and also advises on everything from the tax system in the new destination to the latest customs regulations.

Prices vary depending on destination and level of service, but a typical move from a three bed roomed home in the UK to Australia with Robinsons would cost between £3,000 and £4,000, including the packing and wrapping and all materials, loading, customs, shipping, delivery and unwrapping and unpacking at the final destination.

Robinsons International is a private, family owned business that was established more than 100 years ago and now has six bases around the UK. It handles home and business moves within the UK, Europe and worldwide, including corporate relocation into and out of the UK.

The company also offers a range of specialist shipping services, as well as long and short term storage.
