Have any questions about retiring abroad with Mitos Relocation?
What does Mitos offer for those who want to retire abroad?
Retiring abroad can be life-changing — but it takes more than a property and a visa. It starts with a clear decision. We help you understand the lifestyle, financial, and legal implications of retiring in another country. If you’re still exploring, we’ll guide you through country comparisons, tax and healthcare systems, and even help you plan scouting trips. Once you’ve made your decision, we support the move itself — from immigration and tax planning to finding a home and registering with local services. And our support continues after you arrive. We’re not just here to book logistics. We guide your entire journey — from early planning to settling in — with clarity, care, and expert insight into what your future life abroad will actually look and feel like
