THIS WEEK’S MOVES

🇫🇷 France introduces a mobility visa: Remote-working families now have access to public schools and healthcare in Île-de-France and Nouvelle-Aquitaine.

🇦🇺 Australia tweaks Subclass 482: Families can now be nominated for short-term contracts. A win for seasonal pros setting up in Sydney or Melbourne.

📱 WhatsApp backups go cross-platform: Chat history (family groups included) now migrates seamlessly between iOS and Android. Fewer headaches, more continuity.

🏥 Bupa launches kids-only health plans: Full international coverage for expat children ages 0–14. No adult policy required. → bupaglobal.com

TOOLS WE LOVE

PLACES WORTH CONSIDERING

Valle de Bravo, Mexico: A lakeside base with bilingual schools and room to roam — just 2 hours from Mexico City.

Edinburgh, Scotland: Well-connected and full of quality schools, with visa paths for Commonwealth-linked families.

LOGISTICS TO KNOW

Mid-year entries aren't always an option: Confirm term start dates and entry cutoffs early — especially in UK or Asian schools.

Global coverage fine print matters: Some providers exclude care in non-declared countries. Worth reviewing annually.

FROM THE CONCIERGE
