Relocation, also known as moving, or moving house, is the process of leaving one's dwelling and settling in another.[1] The new location can be in the same neighborhood or a much farther place in a different city or different country (immigration). It usually includes packing all belongings, transferring to the new home, unpacking, and administrative or bureaucratic tasks, such as changing registration data.

An expatriate is an individual temporarily or permanently relocating to a country other than their native country. The individual relocating would be considered an immigrant in their new country.

Psychological effects

On the Holmes and Rahe stress scale for adults, "change of residence" is considered a stressful activity, assigned 20 points (with the death of a spouse being ranked the highest at 100), although other changes on the scale (e.g., "change in living conditions", "change in social activities") often occur as a result of relocating, making the overall stress level potentially higher.[2]

Various studies have found that moving house is often particularly stressful for children and is sometimes associated with long-term psychological problems.[3][4][5][6][7]

Pressure points for international assignees include challenges of a new job, inability to participate in activities available at home, loss of peer support, language and other cultural difficulties, and worker's spouse being unable to find work.[8]<

Assistance

Relocation may be supported by a relocation service, which assists people in finding and moving into a new house, organizing a school for children, conducting local culture training, and supporting integration into the new location and culture.

Some jurisdictions subsidize relocations. Some target remote workers to enhance the local workforce and tax base.[9]

Governance

There may be a legal requirement for individuals to notify authorities of a change of address if they maintain a driver's license or vehicle registration,[10] voter registration, are on parole, or are eligible for conscription (as with the Selective Service System). Some loans require the borrower to notify the lender of address changes.

In the United States, moving companies must provide the customers with a booklet "Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move" created by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).[11]

Immigration law impacts the requirements and feasibility of moving to another country.[12]

In Quebec

In Quebec, even though lease ending dates aren't fixed by law anymore (since 1974), most people move on July 1st or around that time.[13] They call this tradition Moving Day. If there's a disagreement between a renter and their landlord, a special organization called the Régie du logement can help settle it. They act like a court but for rental issues.[14][15]

In France

There are two quality certifications that can be used to ensure the quality of the service provider company: the NF Déménagement label and the ISO 9001 Moving of Individuals certification. A list of NF-certified movers is available on the NF website[16]. Lots of French moving companies are also part of groups like the Union of Moving Companies and the French Federation of Movers. A 2010 survey found that French people move about 4.6 times on average[17]. That's almost 3 million moves a year, costing around €1,000 each. This adds up to a potential market of €3 billion[18][19][20]. But surprisingly, only 20% of these moves are done by professional movers, according to the French Federation of Movers[21].
