I'm leaving the US for good, anything I should do before I leave?

Since this wasn't apparent the last time I asked... no, I'm actually not a US citizen or green card holder (permanent resident). Just happened to be in this country for a long time due to career reasons.

Currently in the same boat, though I'm a citizen
-
Figure out your car and drivers license stuff. Some countries have an agreement that lets you swap a US license for theirs.
-
Mail forwarding. Either forward your mail to someone you trust or pay for an international forwarding service. You're still gonna be getting mail afterwards, like credit card renewals.

You'll likely have to do the same for finances
-
Go through everything you own and trim down. Whatever you don't get rid of, you'll have to deal with customs.
And finally, get a lawyer. No seriously. I know they're expensive but you don't want to fuck around with emigrating on your own. You're gonna have pleeeenty of questions for them
Cash travels, sell your non -heirloom stuff.
Doesn't need to be a lawyer, relocation companies are amazing at this stuff. They can help with taxes, government registration, all of it
