You are not sure the move, the birth, or the wedding should happen.
- Both adults on the call
- Which country can actually do it
- A written no, if that is the answer
Global Family Relocation
One family. One coordinator. One plan.
Our experts and partners are ready to assist you and your family. We coordinate the move, the visa, the home, the school, a birth abroad, and the first weeks after you land. Lawyers, doctors, and banks do the regulated work.
The six things families ask
One place for the whole journey.
- Where could we go — the destination finder, not a ranking.
- How do we get there — relocation, school, and residence questions.
- How do we arrive prepared — with a suitcase, keys, and a SIM.
- Where will we live — a home inside the school commute.
- What if we need another place — family continuity, planned calmly.
- Who helps after we land — the same coordinator.
Where you start is not the limit.
The country you leave and the country you choose do not have to match our passports. Read the country guides.

How the walk looks.
All scenes
The landing
We meet you in the hall. Bags, children, and the first hour in a new country.
The move
The container and the papers. Someone stays until the boxes are in the house.
The keys
A home you can actually sign. We put the keys in your hand.
The school
We walk the gate with you, and we ask about both children.
The birth
The hospital, the doctor, and the week you travel. We stay with you.
You are home
Flowers on the first day. A folder for everything that comes after.
Before you need it
A second place, planned while life is ordinary.
Family continuity is a residence, a school option, and a home you understand — prepared before you need them. We do not sell a flight from a crisis, and we do not call a country safe. Birth, fertility, and surrogacy stay specialist journeys inside the same plan.
Read family continuity- Move abroad
Visa, school, house, shipping, and the first month.
- A second base
A home and a residence you can use, not a rumour.
- Schools
Sibling places inside the commute, before you love a campus.
- A safe home
A house you can sign, in a place that feels safe.
- Fertility abroad
IVF or insemination, coordinated. We are not the clinic.
- Adoption from abroad
The Hague path only. Never a child for sale.
- Investment
A lawful account and a real asset. No hidden money.
The move
We walk the visa, the school, the house, and the first month with you.
Status
Residence and citizenship, step by step, with counsel. Never a promise we cannot keep.
A home
A house your family can sign, in a place that feels safe.
The practical
A bank, a job path, and money that arrives where it should.
What we walk with you.
All services
International relocation
A single desk for visas, housing, schooling, and settling-in — so the family arrives intact.
Birth-abroad coordination
Hospital, travel window, documentation, and postpartum — planned as one continuous mandate.
Family concierge
A discreet household operating system — travel, medical diaries, staff, and the unglamorous work that keeps a family calm.
School matching
We shortlist schools that fit language, age, and the actual commute — not a brochure pile.
Housing search
A home near the right school and clinic, not the first listing that replies.
Partner job support
The partner who moves still needs a profession, not only a visa stamp.
Searched next
Business, bank, school, arrival, and the months after.

Every step, with you.
01
Discover
Where you are, who is moving, and what the move is for. No country is declared the best.
02
Plan
One coordinator writes the sequence: visa, school, home, healthcare, and the people who must do the regulated work.
03
Prepare
Documents, appointments, and a home shortlist inside the school commute, before anyone flies.
04
Arrive
Airport, keys, SIM, and the first appointments. Arrive with a suitcase, not a list of errands.
05
Settle
Registration, school start, doctor, and the ordinary week. The same coordinator stays.
06
Support
After landing, concierge for the household that still has questions. One family. One plan.
Client notes
We will publish family notes when a household agrees to be named. Until then, the picture stories are examples of a plan, not testimonials. Please do not read them as reviews.

All essaysBirth abroad, the child’s citizenship, and the parents’ later years
When a baby born abroad is a citizen, when the baby is not, and why parents are not citizens two to five years later by default.
Family is the most important thing in the move
Why Apichaya Brako plans a relocation around the children and the couple, not around a visa stamp.
Make sure your family is safe — what that means in a move
Housing, health, schools, and a night plan. Safety as a checklist, not a poster.
Step by step: from the first call to a safe first month
The six stages a household actually passes through when Apichaya Brako holds the mandate.
Information evenings: what we host, and what we will not pitch
Quiet briefings in our office cities on moving, safety, residence, and remote work. No product theatre.
The professionals on a family desk
Who actually does the work: two named principals, coordinators, and licensed partners. No invented staff page.
Choose a way to begin.
Start small, or bring the whole household. Either way you have one principal, and you are never handed from desk to desk.

| Relocation | Custom family plan | A household moving between regions |
| Wedding abroad | Custom family plan | An international couple marrying outside one home country |

Your place
Wake up in Phuket, or in Rio. Then tell us the numbers.
Who is moving, beach or a big city, what you can afford each month, and what you will invest. Ten questions, then one possible country. Leave an email and a phone number with the country code, and we reply with a consultation for that household.
Open the questionsAsked before a mandate.
Can you arrange a wedding abroad for an international couple?
Yes, as coordination. We prepare the certificate of no impediment, translations, apostilles, and the registrar appointment, and we map whether the marriage will be recognised at home. We do not perform the ceremony or issue the certificate. Registrar and translator fees are separate. The coordination plan is quoted for that couple and that country.
What is the difference between a second residence and a second citizenship?
A second residence is permission to live in a country for a period, on conditions. A second citizenship is a separate, later decision by that state. Global Family Relocation coordinates the move, the home, and the school. A lawyer files. We do not sell a passport.
Can you arrange a pension move with a caretaker, a doctor, and a SIM card?
Yes, as a coordination package. We plan the move, the airport pickup, a local SIM, a doctor, therapy if you need it, and a caretaker introduced locally. The carer and the physician are licensed where you land. We do not provide medical treatment.
How do I plan an international birth abroad?
Start with why the birth would be abroad, then look at entry rules, a licensed hospital, housing near it, birth registration, the baby’s nationality, and the parents’ status. Global Family Relocation coordinates that sequence. Counsel and the hospital do the legal and medical acts. We do not promise citizenship for the parents.
How much does birth-abroad coordination cost?
The coordination plan is quoted for the country, the hospital, and how much postpartum help you want. Hospital, obstetric, and legal fees are separate and paid to those providers. We do not publish a single birth price.
Which regions do you cover for family relocation?
Our network is expanding. We coordinate with local partners where we have checked they exist. We do not claim a standing office in every city on the map, and we do not say we regularly place families somewhere until that corridor is actually staffed. Ask which destination we can open for your dates.
Are you a law firm or a hospital?
No. Global Family Relocation coordinates. Licensed lawyers, doctors, clinics, and banks do the regulated work. We introduce them. We do not practise law or medicine, and we do not hold client money.
How long does an international family relocation take?
Most mandates run 8–24 weeks from signed brief to landing week. Visa category, school calendars, and housing supply set the pace. A compressed landing can be designed; it costs more and tolerates fewer constraints.
Family brief
News that fits a move.
Visas, school windows, property, investment, and the family files. We write when something on the desk changes — not a weekly advertisement.
