JerseyMate

A source-finder & question planner

Moving to Jersey, Channel Islands

A calm place to gather the questions you want answered before making plans. Start with official guidance, note what remains unclear, and follow up with the right source for your circumstances.

A planning aid, not a rulebook. These prompts help you find and organise questions; they do not tell you what applies to you.

Begin with the Government of Jersey hub.

Use the hub as a route into official information, then check the material relevant to your own situation. The linked sources lower on this page are saved records, not a fresh review of their contents.

Government of Jersey: Moving to Jersey hub

Government’s Moving to Jersey hub links to preparing to move, arrival information and a checklist. Follow its original guidance when planning accommodation, work, healthcare, education and resident registration.

Seven places to pause and make a note.

Use these original prompts to identify unknowns, documents to gather or people to contact. They are questions to investigate, not a list of requirements.

  1. Preparing to move

    What do I still need to find out before I decide whether and when a move works for me, and which official source can clarify each unknown?

  2. Accommodation

    What questions do I have about finding somewhere to live, and what information or documents should I gather before contacting a relevant source?

  3. Work

    What do I need to ask about my own work situation, and who can explain any terms or documents I do not understand?

  4. Healthcare

    Which healthcare questions should I clarify for myself or anyone moving with me, and which official service should I contact?

  5. Education

    If education is relevant to my household, what should I ask about options and the information a school or official service may need from me?

  6. Resident registration

    What do I need to understand about resident registration for my circumstances, and which official source can explain the documents involved?

  7. Arrival tasks

    After reviewing official arrival information, what remains unclear, who can answer it, and what would I like to have ready?
