EUexpat

EUexpat is an independent country-comparison guide for people considering a move to Europe. Designed for prospective movers from the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Brazil and South Africa, it compares Portugal, Spain, Italy, Greece, the Netherlands, France, Germany and Ireland across seven practical factors: tax, visa accessibility, cost of living, climate, English spoken, path to citizenship and safety.

Its interactive country chooser lets users select their situation—such as skilled professional, remote worker, retiree or investor—and assign importance to each factor. The tool then ranks countries using weighted scores, with the calculations performed in the browser. Country scorecards explain the reasoning behind each editorial rating and provide supporting facts and sources. EUexpat also highlights how tax regimes differ by circumstances, helping users see why a country may suit one type of mover better than another. The guide presents Portugal as the leading default choice for skilled professionals, while noting that Greece may appeal more to retirees and Italy to wealthy investors. Its information was last reviewed on 25 September 2026.
