Working Overseas? Here’s The Latest Expat Intelligence
Welcome to the August edition of the Expat Network newsletter, full of the latest news affecting those living and working overseas and for those planning a move abroad.
In this edition we look at the latest job offers open to those willing to work overseas. Below in Featured Jobs we detail just a fraction of the employment opportunities we hold on our database.
Also important for those willing and able to work overseas is to keep track of where new contracts are being awarded. Below in Contract News we showcase just a few of the many contract details we hold on our database.
In this edition you will also find guidance if you are considering working in India or are thinking of taking advantage of the tax breaks offered in Australia or New Zealand.
We also alert you to the new healthcare rules in Dubai and the trend for older contractors just to keep on working.
We hope you enjoy this newsletter. We welcome your thoughts on other topics you would like us to cover. Or do you have your own tale to tell about expat life? Let us know.

Working as a self-employed consultant with contacts from a previous career is a particularly common model for expat contractors.

No Medical Cover? Then No Visa For Dubai
It’s now official that anyone moving to Dubai for work or other reason will not be able to take advantage of the local public healthcare facilities. You must instead take out private medical insurance to cover the cost of your treatment.
To make sure the new law is complied with you will not be able to apply for a residency visa unless you can prove you have valid medical insurance.

Tax Breaks If You Head Down Under
To go alongside the promise of a better life, some locations actually offer expats significant tax benefits. For instance, temporary residents in Australia are not taxed on most of their foreign income. In New Zealand, a favourable tax regime may apply for new residents.
