Editorial policy

Standards for sources, corrections, AI-assisted drafting, advertising and affiliate content.

Accuracy before coverage

ExpatEngine would rather support five countries well than publish forty copied summaries. New calculator logic should not go live until the material conditions and source are understood.

Corrections

Material errors should be corrected promptly, with the verification date updated. Visitors can report an issue through the contact page.

Advertising

Advertising does not influence calculator logic, rankings or editorial conclusions. Ad placements should not disguise themselves as navigation or interfere with tool use.

Affiliate links

If affiliate partnerships are introduced, they should be labelled and should not determine whether a scheme or country is presented as favourable.

Generated content

AI-assisted copy must be grounded in the structured rules and official sources. We do not publish thousands of pages whose only difference is a swapped country or salary value.
