Where should I setup a bank account in Kampong Speu?

Answer this Question

We asked expats in Kampong Speu what banks they use and there advice about banking. They advised...

"Expats considering retirement in Kampong Speu, should be aware that the cost of living is relatively low compared to Western countries. They should also know that the official language is Khmer, although English is widely spoken in tourist areas and by younger generations. Healthcare facilities in Kampong Speu may not be up to the standards expats are used to, so it's advisable to have a comprehensive health insurance plan that includes medical evacuation. The climate in Kampong Speu is tropical, with a rainy season from May to October and a dry season from November to April. Expats should be aware that Cambodia uses the Riel as its currency, but US dollars are widely accepted. It's important to note that while Cambodia is generally safe, petty crime like bag-snatching and pickpocketing can occur, so expats should take basic precautions to protect their belongings. Expats should also be aware of the cultural norms in Cambodia. Politeness and respect for elders are highly valued, and public displays of affection are generally frowned upon. The visa process for retiring in Cambodia is relatively straightforward, but it's advisable to consult with a legal expert or relocation specialist to ensure all paperwork is correctly completed. Finally, expats should know that while Cambodia has a rich history and vibrant culture, it also has a tragic past, with many Cambodians still affected by the atrocities committed during the Khmer Rouge regime. It's important to approach this topic with sensitivity," explained one expat living in Kampong Speu, Cambodia.
