Moving abroad,
without the guesswork

Six free calculators built for anyone relocating internationally: your total one-time relocation cost, the salary you need in a new city to keep the same standard of living, an illustrative skilled-immigration points estimate, household goods shipping cost, upfront housing cost, and how long it takes to break even on the move.

No calculators match that search.

Plan the move before you make it

Start with the total relocation cost estimator to see the one-time cash a move will take, then use the cost-of-living salary equivalence calculator to check whether a job offer abroad actually keeps you ahead. The relocation break-even calculator ties the two together and shows how many months it takes for the move to pay for itself.

Frequently asked questions

Is ExpatKit really free, with no account needed?

Yes — every calculator runs entirely in your browser with no sign-up, no data collection and no cost. Nothing you type is sent to a server.

Who is ExpatKit built for?

Anyone planning a move to another country — for work, study, retirement or a fresh start — who wants a clearer handle on what the move will cost, what salary they'd need to keep their standard of living, and how long it takes to come out ahead financially.

Are these calculators specific to any one country?

No — every calculator on ExpatKit is deliberately generic and country-neutral, using placeholder currency and typical, illustrative figures. They're planning tools meant to work for a move between any two countries, not a substitute for country-specific research.

Can these tools replace immigration, legal or financial advice?

No — they're planning and estimation tools only, especially the immigration points estimator, which is explicitly illustrative and not tied to any real country's system. For anything you plan to act on, use your destination country's official resources and consult a licensed immigration or financial professional.
