While not always required, knowing the local language significantly helps with daily life and bureaucratic processes. Many expats start with basic phrases and improve over time.
Key costs include visa fees, housing deposits, health insurance, moving expenses, and initial living costs. Budget at least 3-6 months of living expenses as a safety net.
