Where should I setup a bank account in Anegada?

Answer this Question

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

"Before retiring in Anegada, British Virgin Islands, expats should be aware that the cost of living is relatively high, especially when it comes to housing and groceries. They should also know that healthcare facilities are limited on the island, so they may need to travel to the main island of Tortola or even to the United States for certain medical treatments. Expats should understand that Anegada is a small, remote island with a population of less than 300 people, so it offers a quiet, slow-paced lifestyle that may not suit everyone. The island's economy is heavily dependent on tourism, which means that job opportunities for expats are limited, mostly to the hospitality sector. English is the official language, but the local accent can be difficult to understand at first. The currency is the US dollar, and while credit cards are widely accepted, it's always a good idea to have some cash on hand. The climate is tropical, with warm temperatures year-round, but the island is susceptible to hurricanes from June to November. Expats should also be aware that the island's infrastructure is basic, with limited public transportation and internet service. Finally, expats should know that while Anegada is a beautiful place with stunning beaches and a relaxed lifestyle, it can also be isolating due to its small size and remote location. It's important to visit the island first to see if the lifestyle suits you before making the decision to retire there," remarked another expat who made the move to Anegada, the British Virgin Islands.
