You keep your U.S. citizenship.

Does it fit your family?

One question, from the program’s own rules.

Do you have a binding job offer in that country?

Not legal advice.

What it takes.

Time: The Prime Minister's Office gives an average six-to-eight-week processing time for residence and work-permit applications.
Cost: Check the current government fee schedule and document costs before applying.
The hard part: Coordinating the work and residence applications before a longer stay.

The road past the first permit.

Later residence or citizenship needs a separate application under the local rules; this permission alone guarantees neither.

Living there.

Time you must spend there: The program sets no minimum number of days. Renewal still expects it to be your home.
Tax: Where you become tax resident follows the days you spend there and where your home is. We map it for your family before you move.

We never file a tax return. We tell you what applies and brief the professional who does.
