IS THIS YOUR NEXT STEP?

Made for the decisions
you’re facing now.

BEFORE YOU PACK

A new city.
A plan that feels manageable.

Put the important decisions in order, from your residence route and first home to the routines that make a place feel like yours.

01

Map your route

Understand which residence and work routes to investigate, who handles each step and which documents need attention before departure.

02

Choose a home that fits

Compare neighbourhoods through your commute, household needs and budget. Prepare for viewings, tenancy paperwork, Ejari and utilities.

03

Budget for arrival

Separate the money needed upfront from your monthly living costs. Plan deposits, rent payments, moving expenses and a reserve.

04

Plan for your household

Work through school and nursery choices, health insurance, medical continuity, family documents and moving with pets.

05

Set up everyday life

Prepare for banking, connectivity, transport and driving. Keep the practical dependencies together in a first-90-days plan.

06

Think beyond the move

Identify tax and residence questions to take to an adviser, track renewals and retain a workable plan if your circumstances change.

Work through a decision

A monthly budget is only
part of the moving budget.

The same annual rent can create very different demands on your cash. The planner helps you record when money leaves your account, alongside what life costs each month.

Change the rent schedule to see how it affects cash needed on arrival.

Other arrival costs are a combined input for your deposits, moving and setup expenses.

First rent payment + other arrival costsAED 52,000First rent payment: AED 30,000

Hypothetical equal instalments, subject to landlord agreement. Annual rent is unchanged. Later rent payments and regular living costs still need funding. The full planner maps the first year. Illustrative inputs, not market prices or forecasts. This is a small web demonstration, not the Excel file itself.

A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS

Before you take
the next step.

Have a question about your plans?

Can I read a sample first?

Yes. The free four-page PDF gives you a preview of the guide. Download it directly from this page, with no email address or payment required.

Can I buy the full package today?

Full package sales are not open yet. You can read the free sample now, explore what is included or send us a question about your Dubai plans.

What do I need to use the files?

A PDF reader for the guide and workbook, and a spreadsheet app that supports XLSX for the editable tool. The HTML reader opens in a web browser. Replace the example inputs with your own figures; this is a downloadable toolkit, not a live market data service.

What is the difference between the guide, Excel and workbook?

The guide explains the decisions and sources. The Excel file calculates from the assumptions you enter. The printable workbook helps you record documents, questions and next steps. The free sample is a short preview, not the complete package.

Who is this guide for?

Individuals, couples and families considering a move to Dubai, including people relocating for work or exploring an independent residence route. It helps you build a practical plan before making commitments.

What do I receive?

A 36-page English PDF guide with 30 chapters and 32 official sources, an offline HTML reader for your phone, an editable XLSX relocation planner, a printable moving workbook and quick-start instructions. This is a digital package; no physical book is shipped.

Will this tell me which visa I qualify for?

It helps you understand the routes and questions to investigate. It does not determine eligibility, submit an application or guarantee approval. Check your circumstances with the relevant authority or a qualified specialist before you commit.

Does it cover families and everyday life?

Yes. The guide covers housing, family paperwork, schools and nurseries, healthcare and insurance, transport, banking, pets and the practical sequence of settling in.

Are the budget figures quotations?

No. Worked examples show how to plan and compare scenarios. Replace the planner’s assumptions with current quotations for your household, chosen home and moving date.

How current is the research?

This edition has a research cut-off of 20 October 2026. Sources are linked in the guide. Residence requirements, fees, school availability, rents and other conditions can change, so verify the details again before acting.

Is relocation assistance included?

No. The package is designed for independent planning. Visa applications, property searches, school placement and personal legal or tax advice are separate services.

Are future editions included?

A purchase covers the dated edition shown on the order review and checkout. Future editions are not automatically included. Contact Locaro about download problems or possible factual errors.

Can I share the files?

The licence allows personal use and private discussion with your household and professional advisers. Public redistribution or resale is not permitted.
