Can I Move Internationally During the Pandemic?

The answer is: maybe. Embarking on an international relocation may or may not be possible depending on your unique plans and circumstances. The first question you need to ask is whether or not your destination country is allowing people to cross their borders. If they are then an international move may be possible at this time, but it will require a lot of careful planning and execution. If you are going to move internationally during the pandemic you will need to consider many different things such as passport criteria, quarantine rules, moving regulations, and so forth. Here is a list of news articles and sources to help you determine whether you can move to another country during the COVID-19 pandemic.
