Where should I setup a bank account in All Saints?

Answer this Question

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

"Before retiring in All Saints, expats should know that the official language is English, making it easier for those from English-speaking countries to communicate. The cost of living can be high, especially for housing and imported goods. Healthcare facilities are available but may not be up to the standard that expats from Western countries are used to. Expats should also be aware that the climate is tropical maritime, with little seasonal temperature variation. The country is prone to hurricanes and tropical storms from June to November. It's important to understand the immigration process, as obtaining residency can be a lengthy process. Expats must apply for a residence permit, which requires proof of financial independence. The country has a relatively low crime rate, but petty crime like theft does occur, so expats should take standard precautions to protect their property. Expats should also be aware that the pace of life in Antigua & Barbuda is slower than in many Western countries. This can be a significant adjustment for some people. The country's economy is heavily reliant on tourism, and there may be limited opportunities for part-time work if retirees wish to supplement their income. Finally, expats should know that while the country is beautiful and offers a relaxed lifestyle, it may not offer the same level of amenities and services they are used to in their home country. It's recommended to visit the country before making a decision to retire there," explained one expat living in All Saints, Antigua & Barbuda.
