Captain Waypoint
One app for living abroad.
Only for iPhone
Free · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
iPhone
The all-in-one app for people living, moving, or working across borders. Verified answers, trusted tools, and real human help, wherever life takes you.
A note on our name: in the Netherlands we are known as Buitenland Loket. Same team, same principles, built to work for people from any country, living in any country.
Captain Waypoint is for anyone navigating life across borders, and anyone who is done with the bureaucratic runaround.
When you live, move, or work abroad, you are often on your own. Official information is scattered across dozens of government pages. Expat forums and social media try to help, but the answers are unreliable or out of date. Captain Waypoint brings it all together in one place you can trust.
One app for everything cross-border life throws at you:
• Taxes and double-taxation
• Passports, registration, and consular services
• Healthcare, insurance, and benefits
• Voting from abroad
• Visas, residency, and work permits
• Moving abroad, moving home
• Banking, housing, and schools
• And more
WHY CAPTAIN WAYPOINT
One clear answer
We gather and clarify information from more than 700 verified sources, so you do not have to search endlessly or second-guess what you read online.
The Captain, your AI guide
Our voice and text assistant is available 24/7. It asks the right questions, knows your country and situation, remembers your case, and gives advice you can actually act on. Grounded in verified sources, built for high-stakes decisions.
Dashlets, the tools you need in one tap
Flight search, tax calendars, travel advisories, currency conversion, doctor finder, school finder, housing search, embassy mailbox, emergency lines, and more. Configure the dashboard that fits your life.
MyAbroad, every government portal pre-verified
Over 180 official government portals across 60+ countries, in a sandboxed in-app browser. Pre-verified URLs protect you from phishing, and your login details never leave your device.
Personal when it matters
When AI is not enough, we connect you to a verified partner: tax advisors, notaries, relocation specialists, and more.
Emergency alerts and SOS
Real-time consular alerts scoped to your country, region, or city. When things go wrong, signal your embassy's 24/7 line with one tap. Privacy first: your embassy sees that help is needed, not who you are.
Community and events
Watch parties, cultural holidays, language swaps, and practical workshops with verified hosts. Meet people living the same experience you are.
Always up to date
Rules change. Procedures change. Captain Waypoint tracks it for you, so you never fall behind.
