Dubai, The UAE
What do I need to know before retiring in Dubai?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Dubai, they said...
"Before retiring in Dubai, expats should be aware of the cost of living, which is generally higher than in other parts of the world. It is important to research the different types of visas available and the associated costs and requirements. Additionally, expats should be aware of the local laws and customs, and familiarize themselves with the local language. Healthcare is also an important factor to consider, as expats should ensure they have access to quality medical care. Finally, expats should research the different neighborhoods and areas of Dubai to find the best fit for their lifestyle," said another expat in Dubai, the UAE.
"Remember your purpose of coming to the city, many cases you earn lots but also spends lots," wrote a member who made the move to Dubai, UAE.
