What do I need to know before moving to Rabat?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Rabat, they said...
"Rabat is the capital of Morocco and is a great place for expats to live. It is a modern city with a rich cultural heritage, and is home to a diverse population. Expats should be aware that the official language is Arabic, although French is widely spoken. It is important to be aware of the local customs and dress appropriately. Expats should also be aware that the cost of living in Rabat is relatively low, and that there are plenty of opportunities for employment. Finally, it is important to research the local healthcare system and ensure that you have adequate health insurance," commented one expat who made the move to Rabat, Morocco.
