Testimonials

What expats say about our experts

The consultant gave sound and relevant advice without trying to sell me services. His advice gave me the information and approach for my next step. He advised I try myself but made it clear he could help further if I needed it - and as precise and clear about the cost of using his services for the next step. Couldn't have been better.

Ivor M.

Double Tax Relief introduction in Portugal

It was a fast and efficient service and put me in touch with a professional who was able to give the advice I was looking for.

Connor P.

UK CGT introduction in United States

Quick and first consultation free without commitment in case you didn’t find it useful. Avoids having to search for experts online that you may/may not trust.

Leila G.

Double Tax Treaty introduction in Germany

A quick response and very happy with the consultant that was recommended

Jill P.

Investment Advice introduction in United Arab Emirates

The service was excellent. The work I needed done was complicated and beyond me. It was completed over the weekend before Christmas, and I received the first rebate from HMRC on Jan 2nd. I cannot recommend the consultant too highly!

Peter B.

UK Tax Return introduction in Spain

Very impressed with the speed of both Robert and the consultant I was connected to. The consultant definitely had good knowledge of the space and was very professional.

Andrew B.

Double tax relief introduction in United Kingdom

The referral by Experts for Expats led me to a couple of advisers that provided exactly what I required. The adviser clarified what would be best for me as an individual with limited understanding of pension transfer implications and confirmed that I was correct in stepping away from what had been put in front of me by previous cold-callers.

Mark S.

Pensions introduction in North America

The expert was very friendly, helpful and precise in answering my questions on the rules on residence and domicile, and their effects on tax status, for UK-US dual citizens like myself and my wife. I was stimulated to confirm the salient points on Gov.UK. This has allowed us to plan our future stays in the US and UK.
