Purchase history - moving abroad

I was thinking of switching to another boutique as I'm moving abroad for work and I was wondering if I still would be considered in the new boutique?

To make it more clear, all of my APs where bought at the same AP boutique and just hope that my previous purchase will still be visible at the new one? Many thanks

Will 100% be visible. Where that slots you in their existing client pecking order is a different story. I'd either talk to the old boutique and ask them to make an introduction or keep my existing connection, if you are expecting to be traveling back-and-forth or to move back in a few years (that's what I did).

I don't think it can be worst than right now actually. Will do my best to make a better connection at the new boutique.

Totally visible. I move from FL to NY and they acknowledge my previous history to allocate an RO last year.

Let current boutique know where you’re going and ask them to transfer you to the new local boutique.

You’ll probably have some growing pains dealing with a new boutique / SA but you will not be starting from scratch (far from it). I spoke to an SA about this recently and they confirmed it’s fairly common

It totally makes sense to transfer. Hard to keep a relationship if you cannot visit and talk to the boutique personnels with some regularity. I moved to NY because I live in the Tristate area. My SA in FL also left so the new person I connected me will work with me if I make a visit. It is a pain but good thing is I was not starting from scratch.
