What do I need to know before moving to Angola?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Angola, they said:
"Angola is a large and diverse country with a rich cultural heritage. Expats should be aware that the official language is Portuguese, so it is important to learn the language before moving to Angola. Expats should also be aware that the cost of living in Angola is high, so it is important to budget accordingly. Additionally, expats should be aware that the healthcare system in Angola is not as developed as in other countries, so it is important to have adequate health insurance. Finally, expats should be aware that the political situation in Angola is unstable, so it is important to stay informed about the current situation," explained one expat living in Angola.
