Data & Sources

Relova publishes two kinds of information: AI-researched document checklists with named official or consular sources, and static editorial baselines used for comparison. This page states which is which, how the checklist cache is kept, and which checklists you may cite.

Citing this page

Source-cited document checklists (Tier 1) linked below are free to cite with attribution to Relova (relova.ai). Include the last-verified date shown for that pair. The static country database and tax-rate overlay (Tier 2) are editorial baselines without per-field sources — they are not offered as a citable dataset.

For data citation or press inquiries, email support@relova.ai with subject "Data citation".

How data is generated

Three layers sit behind our tools. Only the first is source-cited research. The other two are compiled editorial files and should not be read as official figures.

1. Document checklists — AI-researched, source-cited (Tier 1)

Cache-coverage snapshot: computed at build time from the live checklist cache, most recently generated September 22, 2026.

An AI research pipeline searches the live web, prioritizes official government and consular sources, and stores results in a cache. Cached entries are treated as valid for about 30 days. 968 of 975 document items (99.3%) include a named official or consular source. Citizenship-specific destination notes in Can I Move use a related AI cache (8 citizenships, roughly 15-20 destination matches per citizenship from the most recent research pass). Those notes are not the same as the source-cited checklist items in the table below.

2. Country reference database — static, editorial (Tier 2)

No per-field verification date.

A compiled country file covering 106 countries (cost level, safety score, healthcare quality, climate, and similar fields). Not government-sourced, not citizenship-specific, and not produced by the checklist research pipeline.

3. Tax-rate overlay — static, editorial (Tier 2)

No per-field verification date.

A separate overlay covering 28 countries, used only in comparison tools. Compiled editorial baseline — not government-sourced, and not listed as figures on this page. Not offered as a citable dataset.

Current coverage

Snapshot from our live caches and static reference files, computed at build time from the checklist cache (most recently generated September 22, 2026). These grow as we research more pairs — they are not a permanent claim.

• 47 citizenship → destination document checklists generated
• 975 document requirements catalogued — 968 (99.3%) with a named official or consular source
• 8 citizenships analyzed for realistic relocation destinations, roughly 15-20 destination matches per citizenship
• 77 cached Can I Move citizenship → destination checks published
• 202 cached Country Compare pages published
• 106 countries in our static reference database (lifestyle / cost / safety baseline — not AI checklist research)

Of 975 cached document items, 968 carry a non-empty named source field; 7 do not. We do not treat those as sourced evidence.

Published document checklists

Last-verified dates below are the cache timestamps from the document-checklist snapshot used to prerender each pair page — not a live database query. The table lists every checklist with a public Documents Needed URL (47 pairs). Coverage figures above count 47 cached checklists as of the most recent build; any cached row without a published standalone page is not listed here.

Cached Can I Move checks

Every citizenship → destination pair with a published Can I Move page (77 pairs). Verdicts summarize the cached citizenship-candidate research described above; check each destination page for the underlying note.

Cached Country Compare pages

Every country pair with a published Country Compare page (202 pairs). Table data on each page is computed live from the static reference database above, not separately researched per pair.

What we don't have yet

Most citizenship / destination pairs haven't been researched yet. Uncached pairs in Can I Move and Documents Needed say so clearly rather than guessing.

Freshness policy

Applies to AI caches only. Computed at build time.

Caches are valid for roughly 30 days. Of the 47 document checklist rows, 23 were generated more than 30 days before this build and are due for a refresh. The static country database and tax-rate overlay are not on this refresh cycle. They have no per-field verification date.

Contact

If a document requirement looks outdated or wrong, email support@relova.ai with the specific item. We look into corrections without publishing a fixed response SLA.
