The founder

Built by someone who actually made the move.

Like most expats, I spent months researching visas, schools, housing, banking and costs — and still got things in the wrong order.

I wrote the original relocation guide so nobody else had to piece it together from forum threads.

Dubai Move OS turns that guide into something that answers with your numbers: your household, your salary, your move date.

The tools inside

Three tools, fifteen chapters,
and a concierge.

The tools recalculate against your household, salary and move date. The guide is the full relocation handbook, written from one family's move. The concierge answers anything the two don't cover.

The move-in costs nobody advertises
Budget planner
True move-in cost — first cheque, 5% deposit, agency fee, Ejari, DEWA and chiller — recalculated from your household and salary.
Avoid the wrong-visa restart
Visa pathway
Match your salary, household and timing to the right visa route — and the documents it actually needs.
Hours of agent calls
Area matcher
Scores 27 neighbourhoods against your commute, budget, schools and lifestyle — not vibes.
Faster than a paid consultant
AI concierge
Ask anything — visa thresholds, Ejari, school timelines — and get answers grounded in the guide and your own numbers.

Why trust this

Built from a real move — and shared with thousands.

I'm Temi. I moved from the UK to Dubai with my husband and toddlers, spent months preparing for the move, visas, schools, housing and costs — and turned everything I learned into the guide this platform is built on. I share the journey daily with the ThatDubaiExpat community on TikTok and Instagram.
