You need to contact "the home office" if you are moving to the UK

Banking

We approached several banks here in the UK to open an account. Without a history some of them were not interested. Eventually we walked into HSBC and they were very helpful. We managed to open a Current account and a savings account and a Junior account for Sarah. Don't expect to get a credit card straight away. You will have to build a relationship with the bank first. After about 8 months we approached the bank again for a credit card and they were only to willing to give us one with a huge credit facility. They even wanted to give us a personal loan.

If you decide to live together in the UK, the first thing the American citizen must do is apply to one of the UK consulates in the USA for entry clearance to the UK, known as "Leave to Enter". Details are available from the UK Embassy.

Once you have secured this entry clearance, you are free to travel to the UK. The entry clearance is usually valid for multiple entries for one year, and you are free to come-and-go during this time. Before the year is up (at around the 10-month point), you should apply to the Immigration and Naturalisation Directorate (IND) at the Home Office for "Leave to Remain". Once you have secured "Leave to Remain", you are a permanent resident of the UK with no restrictions on your stay.

Assuming you are an American living in US, no, you do not need permission from US government to move to a foreign country.

You do; however, need a permission from the country you are moving into, mostly in form of a VISA. The target country will decide what qualifications are required for the type of "move" you will make.

A green card is a permanent residency in the US. To obtain a green card, you are first issued a temporary residency VISA which give you a chance for an interview by the US immigration department. Upon approval, you will be issued a green card.

Is this just a question or are you actually moving. Based on the basic nature of the question you are asking, are you really prepared to make such a move?

The permission to leave your country is called a PASSPORT.
The permission to enter foreign countries is called VISA.
