All directions
What people resolve through us —
and what is in this you do
Here is the full list of SVOY destinations. A partner finds their niche within it. A representative city sees which specialists are needed to cover it fully. The list is shared across the whole network — local specifics are covered separately.
What the platform provides
The person comes to us first
People relocate and find themselves in a city where they don’t know a single person. They need housing, status, doctor, school for the child, car, bank account — all at once, in a foreign language, and under unfamiliar rules. We built a place where such a person comes before starts looking for a contractor.
City chats around the world
A person connects with the community on day one — and immediately asks about the neighbourhood, a doctor, a school, and paperwork. This is the most honest source of demand: people describe a problem before they even start Googling it.
Marketplace and app
svoy.io and the app on Telegram, where people find housing, professionals, and services in their own city — not in a global feed. We list your offers for free.
City guides
Each city has sections on housing, documents, banking, schools, healthcare, transport, and safety. Readers can browse and submit a request without leaving the page.
Specialized network websites
Real estate, legalisation and documents, childbirth and citizenship for children, legal protection, halal services — each area has its own website, channel, and bot.
Applications are accepted on the website
A person fills in a short form right on the page or messages us on WhatsApp. We respond within two hours, clarify the task and timeline — and only then connect you.
Your contact is hidden until consent is given
Until you say «I’ll take it», the specialist sees neither your phone number nor your name. No one cold-calls your database or poaches a client outside the agreement.

Status, documents, and money
What a person faces in the first weeks, without which the rest of life cannot begin. These are the most urgent requests and the highest willingness to pay — these questions cannot be put off.
Status and legalisation
The most common question for someone abroad: how to stay legally.
- Residence permit and permanent residence
- citizenship and naturalization
- status renewal and change of basis
- apostille
- sworn translations
- diploma nostrification
- notarial acts

Visas and travel
A standalone service, not part of the documents section: it is also used by people who have not yet moved anywhere.
- US visas, Schengen, Canada
- finding a slot and booking an appointment
- guest visas for family members
- visa runs and border exits for status
- invitations and booking confirmations
- insurance for a visa application
- translation of the visa package
The only direction that is not tied to a specific country — you can work on it from anywhere.
First week in the country
Everything without which nothing gets started in a new country — and which people usually piece together on their own.

- bank account
- tax number: CURP, RFC, SSN, ITIN, NIE, RUT, SIN

Law, taxes, and business
When the question is more complex than a form and you need a licensed professional.

Life on the ground
Once status is sorted, everyday life begins — and it accounts for more than half of all requests. A major transaction happens once a month, but transfers, doctors, and tradespeople are needed every day.
Housing and real estate
Almost everyone starts here — and everything else grows from this.
- long-term rental
- short-term rental
- property purchase
- mortgage for non-residents
- property management
- renovation and custom furniture
- cleaning
- moving and shipping belongings
Education
Education is a reason for the whole family to relocate, not just a standalone service for the child.
- colleges and universities
- language schools and courses
- programme selection and document submission
- diploma nostrification
- uition payments from abroad
In some countries the commission is paid by the institution, not the client.
Children and family
Parents sort out their child’s matters before their own — and bring the whole family along with them.
- schools and kindergartens
- clubs and camps
- tutors
- nannies
- children’s entertainers
- r birth and citizenship for the child
- nikah
- weddings and event planning
Health and beauty
The first thing people search for in their own language: a doctor they can explain their symptoms to.
- doctors and dentists
- check-ups and screenings
- online consultations
- psychologists
- massage
- hairdressers
- nail services and brow styling
- cosmetology
Transport
From the airport pickup to a local driving licence — the journey most people complete in their first few months.
- transfers and airport meet-and-greet
- intercity travel
- car rental, minivans, premium class
- motorbikes, scooters, bicycles
- auto repair and tire service
- car search and purchase
- driver’s licence and licence legalisation
Tourism and activities
Resort towns bring a flow of clients that city locations simply can’t match: people come for a short time and pay upfront.
- group tours
- individual tours
- yachts and boats
- fishing
- diving and snorkeling
- SUP and kayaks
- jet ski and parasailing
- flights
- restaurant reservations
Daily life and services
The little things that are hardest to handle in a foreign country — and come back every month.

- handyman
- appliance repair
- furniture dry cleaning
- couriers and delivery
- pet boarding
- veterinary
Media and language
When you need not a specialist, but someone by your side.
- photo shoots
- videography
- wedding photography
- interpreter for a day

A standalone format
Not everyone needs requests one at a time. For businesses with a steady flow of clients, consistent visibility matters more — in the marketplace and in their city’s chats.
City showcase
A standalone format for those who need not a one-off lead, but consistent visibility among the community.
- business listing in the marketplace
- display in city chats
- placement on the network’s websites
- articles and curated selections
Ideal for cafés, salons, shops, and everyday service businesses — anywhere customers walk in through the door.
The list is general; rules are local
The service areas are the same across the entire network. In certain regions, additional local services, while some operate under local rules:
- in some places, only a locally licensed specialist may provide immigration advice;
- in some places, tourist services require a separate registration and guarantee;
- agent’s commission for a rental is paid by the landlord in one country, by the tenant in another, and in a third city charging the tenant is prohibited by law;
- in resort cities tourism accounts for up to a third of all inquiries; in business hubs it’s nearly zero, but everyday life, schools, and relocation are much more prominent.
What works in your city and where it makes more sense to start — we will go through it on a call after the form is submitted. We won’t put words in your mouth.
Two roles
How to use this list
The partner picks from the list what is theirs. The representative looks at the full list and compiles people in their city for it.
Partner
You provide the service yourself.
- Choose one or more areas from the list — those in which you work.
- You receive requests from people who have already confirmed their task and timeline.
- We list your properties and listings for free on the marketplace, across our network of sites, and in city chats.
- For some destinations, payment is processed through us before the booking is dispatched.
City representative
You don’t provide services yourself — you curate the directory for your city.
- You find strong specialists in the areas on this list and connect them to SVOY.
- The more categories a city covers, the more requests stay within the community rather than going elsewhere.
- It makes sense to start with what everyone needs in the first month: the first week in the country, legal status, housing, insurance.
- From here, the system handles requests, matching, and calculations. One city — one representative.
Didn’t find your destination?
This isn’t a ’no,’ it’s a ’not launched yet.’ Write and tell us what you do and which city you’re in — if we have the request, we’ll open the direction for you. All of this is in the partner form.
