Life abroad is exciting.
Managing it properly is harder.
Expat Diary helps you build a clear, organised record of your life abroad. So when HMRC or your accountant asks for proof, you have everything in one place.
When HMRC asks for proof, can you find it?
As an expat, you need to prove where you were, when you worked, and how many days you spent in each country. Tax residency rules are strict, and getting it wrong is expensive.
Right now, your evidence is scattered across boarding passes in your inbox, calendar entries, photos, and half-remembered dates. When your accountant asks for a breakdown, you spend hours piecing it together.
There has to be a better way.
Build your evidence trail as you go
Expat Diary captures and organises everything you need to prove where you were and what you were doing.
Flight tickets in one place
Upload boarding passes and confirmations. We extract dates, routes, and airports automatically.
Geo-tagged work sessions
Clock in and out with location proof. Generate timesheets when you need them.
Daily presence diary
See exactly which country you were in each day. Track work days vs personal days.
Reports for HMRC
Generate professional PDF reports showing days per country, work patterns, and supporting docs.
Threshold alerts
Get warned before you breach UK tax residency limits or Schengen 90/180 rules.
Notes and context
Add notes to any day. Record what you were doing so you can explain it later.
Not another notes app. Not a social feed.
A proper evidence trail for your life abroad.
