Every guide. Dated. Checked.
Relocation advice goes stale quietly. A visa threshold rises in January, a tax regime closes, a health premium resets, and the article that ranked first on Google still says last year's number. This is the full index of every guide on Europe Unlocked, with the date each one was last verified against the official source and when it is next due for review.
What "last verified" means
On that date someone re-read the guide and checked every figure, threshold and deadline against the official body that publishes it. If a number had moved, the guide was corrected and the sources list updated. The stamp on the page is the same stamp you see here.
Review cadence by risk
Visa and tax guides are re-checked every three months because those rules move fastest. Healthcare, housing, cost of living, working and country hubs are re-checked every six months. Where-to-live and everyday-living guides are re-checked once a year. A guide that passes its review date is marked as due here until it has been re-verified.
Between reviews
Rule changes rarely wait for a review date. The Policy watch log records every change we track the week it is announced, and each entry links to the guide it affects. Subscribers to The Unlock get the same changes in one email every Saturday.

Visas & Residency
