About

An independent information layer for moving abroad

ENRIS is free, requires no account, and takes no commission for sending you anywhere.

Our mission

Researching a move abroad usually means bouncing between disconnected sites, outdated forum threads, and consultants who charge for a first conversation. Each source answers one slice of the question and none of them talk to each other. ENRIS puts the core tools — costs, visas, tax, banking, healthcare, timelines — in one free, no-signup place, using the same data model across every page so the numbers stay comparable.

How we score destinations

Every destination is scored 0–100 on four criteria. Scores are relative to the other destinations in the set, not absolute judgments, and they are recalculated when the underlying figures are refreshed.

Cost of living

Rent, utilities, groceries, dining, transport, and healthcare for a single person in the main expat cities, converted to USD.

Healthcare access

Private plan pricing, public-option availability, waiting periods, and how coverage quality is generally rated.

Tax burden

Residency triggers, whether foreign income is taxed, and the practical top rate a resident is likely to face.

Safety

Public crime indices at the city level, weighted toward the neighbourhoods where newcomers actually live.

Figures are estimates aggregated from public sources and refreshed periodically. They are a starting point for your own research, not a replacement for professional legal, tax, or immigration advice.

What ENRIS is not

  • Not a visa agency, law firm, bank, or insurance broker.
  • We take no commission for placement and run no 'Apply Now' checkout.
  • We do not sell, submit, or review applications on your behalf.
  • We do not publish star ratings or sponsored rankings of providers.

Data sources & disclaimer

Cost figures draw on public cost-of-living indices and local listing data. Visa, tax, and driving rules draw on published government and consulate material. Insurance and banking details draw on publicly listed provider terms. Rules change without notice and are applied differently by individual officials, so confirm anything decision-critical with the official source before you act.

Estimates for planning purposes — confirm with an official source before you act.
