Where should I setup a bank account in Husavik?

Answer this Question

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

"Before retiring in Husavik, expats should know that the cost of living is relatively high, with groceries, dining, and housing being more expensive than in many other countries. They should also be aware that the climate is cold and windy, with long, dark winters and short, cool summers. Expats should understand that the official language is Icelandic, and while many people speak English, it would be beneficial to learn some Icelandic. They should also know that the healthcare system in Iceland is of a high standard, but it is advisable to have comprehensive health insurance. Expats should be aware that Husavik is a small town known for its whale watching tours, so it may not offer the same amenities or entertainment options as a larger city. However, it does offer a peaceful and quiet lifestyle, with stunning natural beauty and outdoor activities. They should also know that the Icelandic people are known for their friendliness and hospitality, but they also value their privacy and expect others to do the same. Expats should be prepared for the high tax rates in Iceland, which fund services like education and healthcare. They should also understand that while Iceland is a safe country, it's important to take precautions when participating in outdoor activities due to the country's unpredictable weather and rugged terrain. Lastly, expats should know that public transportation is limited in Husavik, so having a car can be beneficial. However, they should be prepared for challenging driving conditions, especially in winter," explained one expat living in Husavik, Iceland.
