Relocation overview (country-level)

Moderate — Visa requirements depend heavily on nationality: EU/EEA/Swiss citizens can move freely and simply register after three months, while non-EU nationals must navigate a visa and residence permit process (e.g., work, D7 passive income, or investor visas). Housing involves a standard rental contract, a security deposit of one to two months’ rent, and the first month’s rent upfront. Overall, the process is manageable but requires careful planning, especially for non-EU movers.
