How Do I Travel And Work Aboard?

I m 28 and my brother is 38 we are from Malaysia, we plan to quit our job to travel and work. Can any body tell us what the processes are for people like that, is it possible? We know that visitor are not aloud to work but is there any other way? We haven’t chosen our journey yet. But I hope I can finish my travel by the age of 30.


If you want to travel to the US

You need to apply for a J-1 visa

Here's the link

It depends on what you want to do and where you want to go really. If you're English skills are good, you may be able to find a job teaching others. I'm from the U.S., but I'm currently teaching English in Vietnam. Many of the schools will even pay your round-trip airfare if you sign a contract with them. The school I work for will pay round-trip airfare for a one year contract, but you may find a better deal at different schools or different countries. If you want to teach then you should get a TESOL certificate (which you can do online) and it also helps if you have a degree of some kind. Some countries have requirements that you must meet in order to get a work permit. Basically all you need to live and work in a foreign country is a work permit and a visa that allows you to work. Usually people travel with visitor visas, but if you want to work you have to get a business visa. The requirements are different for every country, so just choose which country you want to visi
t and then fill out the appropriate paperwork. When I decided to come to Vietnam, I just downloaded the forms from the Vietnamese Embassy's website in the U.S. and filled it out and mailed it to them. My visa cost around $30 I think, and now I renew my Visa every 3 months for $10. Again, the information you need will be different for every country, so just look for the forms and fee information on the Embassy's website for whatever country you want to visit. Let me know if you've got any other questions I can help you with.
