Start Abroad is amazing I’m so glad Start Abroad exists! It made getting my digital nomad visa a breeze. Zach kept me well-informed every step of the way. He thoroughly answered any question I had. Plus, he followed up quickly so I was never in the dark about anything. I truly appreciate his professionalism — from taking care of all necessary translations, staying on top of all deadlines for submitting documentation, and putting together my application. Moving can be a challenge, so having a company like Start Abroad make the process easier meant there was one less thing to worry about. It gave me peace of mind and freed up my time to focus on other things.

StartAbroad helped us find a home in a tight market. We hired StartAbroad to help us find a long-term rental in Portugal and we're extremely happy that we did. Because we wanted to be in the Algarve where longer term rentals aren't easy to find, Anna from StartAbroad helped us create a wish list that matched our budget still managed to check the boxes that were important to us. Based on that, she compiled listings for us to see as soon as we touched down in Portugal from the US. Armed with that, and a little bit of luck, we were able to find a home that was everything we'd hoped for! We feel very confident recommending StartAbroad to anyone looking to relocate abroad.

Highly Recommend StartAbroad! My wife Debbie and I connected with StartAbroad to help us with receiving our Costa Rica Digital Nomad visas. This involves a fairly complicated application and interviiew process, most of which is conducted in Spanish. Working with Zach and Anna has been a dream - they explained everything clearly and completely, assisted us in completing the applications and filed them on our behalves, gave clear indication of what the various steps and costs would be, and scheduled our final in-person interviews according to the availability dates we provided them. The entire process went very smoothly - even when there were a couple of small hiccups, Zach and Anna engaged the Immigration Department and made sure it all worked out. We've both successfully received our visas at this point - I can't thank StartAbroad enough, and recoommend them wholeheartedly! ~ Tony Valentino

StartAbroad helped me with my Digital Nomad Visa I was struggling with my Costa Rica Digital Nomad Visa application - the process was much more complex then I thought it would be. I reached out to StartAbroad and they helped me navigate the process for myself and my daughter. They are very quick to respond and very knowledgeable. If you're getting your Digital Nomad Visa in Costa Rica, I'd recommend working with them to make your life much easier. They also have other really useful services for expats such as assistance with purchasing a vehicle. Thanks again StartAboard!

Making a Pura Vida Dream Possible I don't know how we would have been able to settle into our Pura Vida as well as we did without Zach, Anna, and the Start Abroad team. We can't recommend them enough. When we first came up with the dream of relocating our whole family, including 2 kids under 4, it was just that a dream. We knew Costa Rica was the destination, but that was about it. Zach and Anna helped coach us through all we needed in order to find a town, community, apartment, school, car, and more. They made sure someone was there at the airport(s) to pick up us and our mountains of luggage. They were a WhatsApp away when we had random questions and concerns. Thank you Zach and Anna for making this dream a reality. We
