I am currently looking to move to Prague with my partner. I am working in UK at the moment in a job which allows me to work remotely. When moving to Czech Republic is it possible for me to keep the job i currently have or do I have to look for a job in CZ.

If I can keep the job and work remotely in CZ what would I have to do in terms of government/taxes/applying for certain things?

I got a D visa for Norway without a job offer. I applied for the visa to do business. 

I received a visa letter without any restriction. There is no mentioned that I can do business while on this visa. 

My question is, can I work while on that visa? Or can I only do business? Will I have any problems reapplying after 3 years?

Hi everyone,

I'm new her and thought about posting my situation as I would need to relocate to Asia for work. The choice is mine. I'm having to choose between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.

My consideration are as follows:

1. I'm an American. I am single, no family and no kids.

2. I have to wrap up my life in the US - what all do I need to do from that perspective.

3. Where should I move and why?

4. I would be working out of home office as I have to cover the region for work.

Hi everyone,

I will soon be arriving in Zambia to take up a 2-year contract. I will be spending most of my time in Lusaka with occasional forays to other provinces.

I am concerned about malaria. What are the risks of contracting malaria in Lusaka? Do all expats religiously take prophylaxis? I'm concerned about long term chemo-prophylaxis and the toxicity dangers. Is it possible to rely solely on bite prevention - i.e. deet, clothes, nets etc.

Any advice greatly appreciated!

Hi

I have read so many threads on so many forums  that I thought it maybe it’s time to get a direct answer. We are moving to Belgium early next year - my son will be 5 in Jan and my daughter is two. My husband’s job is in Leuven, we have never been to Belgium and from our reading decided that we would likely settle near Leuven. Please could you recommend some good schools in or around Leuven for me to apply to for them. Thanks.
