Restrictions will begin to be lifted from October 1st<\/sup>, 2021 onwards. Note that there remain many details and processes to be clarified by the authorities and we will expect many changes throughout the next several weeks.

Regarding government offices such as the labor and immigration departments, this is very good news as we can expect a resumption of somewhat normal processing of work permits and visa applications. However, due to the recent lockdown, there is a large backlog of applications and government officers may not return to work in full force immediately. We can still expect some delays to continue for the near future until the current situation stabilizes.

At this stage, we expect that assignees will be able to proceed with our accompanied services (homesearch, settling in) but with some limitations as buildings and certain landlords may still restrict outside access. Various suppliers and real estate agents have confirmed they will be providing services starting next week. Note that there are many aspects of the current lifting of restrictions that remain unclear and we will still need to take each assignee interaction on a case by case until things stabilize further. As of this date, international schools remain closed and it is unclear if they will reopen for in-person learning this year.<\/p>\n
