The expatriates

Expatriates, or expats, are individuals who live outside their native country for work, study, or personal reasons. They often move abroad temporarily or permanently, often for career opportunities or lifestyle changes. Expats usually retain citizenship in their home country while adapting to a new culture, language, and environment. Their experience involves adjusting to different social norms, legal systems, and workplace practices. Companies sometimes sponsor expats to work in foreign branches, and expatriates can contribute to global business, cultural exchange, and economic development.
