Dealing with Jamaica is harder than it should be, and most of that difficulty is information nobody hands you. The Attaché is built for Jamaicans living abroad, Jamaicans at home, returning residents, and anyone moving to Jamaica to live, work or invest. Free to download. No in-app purchases. No advertising. We do not track you. SECURE DOCUMENT VAULT Keep your TRN, NIS and NHT numbers, work permit, business registrations and property documents behind a PIN, available wherever you are. Optional Face ID. We do not store passports, driver's licences or birth certificates. We ask for those numbers only at the moment an application needs them, and discard them afterwards. We never ask for passwords to government portals. Only usernames, so you can find them again. GOVERNMENT DIRECTORY PICA, TAJ, NHT, the Companies Office, NLA, NWC, JPS and more. Who does what, what to bring, what it costs, and step-by-step guides for the processes people actually need. JAMAICA INTELLIGENCE MAP Parish-level information on the places you are considering: safety, services, hospitals, police stations, schools and constituencies. Free, with no limits. LINKS Interest rooms that connect you with people doing the same thing you are. Buying a business together, hiring, looking for work, returning home, importing a vehicle, setting up a company. You choose your interests and we put you in the right room. RELOCATION AND SERVICE GUIDES Banking, utilities, schools, healthcare, importing a vehicle, registering a business, creating a trust. What to do, in what order, with what documents. BUSINESS VALUATION An informed estimate of what a Jamaican business is worth, using sector multiples adjusted for the things buyers actually price. BUSINESS MARKETPLACE — COMING SOON Verified listings of Jamaican businesses for sale, with introductions to licensed brokers, attorneys and accountants. Register your interest in the app. --- The Attaché is operated by NoProblem LLC. We are not a law firm, an immigration adviser, a licensed broker, or a government agency, and we are not affiliated with any Jamaican government agency. Information in the app is general guidance.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Attache' at none against OBDLink's 10. The Attache' also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). OBDLink's advantage is chart position (#166 vs unranked). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
