Where should I setup a bank account in Saint-Esprit?

Answer this Question

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

"Before retiring in Saint-Esprit, expats should know that the official language is French, so it would be beneficial to learn or have a good understanding of the language. The cost of living can be high, especially when it comes to imported goods, due to the island's remote location. Healthcare in Martinique is of a high standard, but it's recommended to have comprehensive health insurance. The climate is tropical, with a rainy and dry season, and it is prone to hurricanes between June and November. The culture is a blend of French and Caribbean influences, with a laid-back lifestyle and a strong emphasis on family and community. Expats should be aware of the local laws and customs, including those related to property ownership and taxation. Public transportation is available but having a car can be more convenient for getting around the island. The cuisine is a mix of French, African, and Creole influences, with seafood being a staple in the diet. While Saint-Esprit is a small town, it's close to the capital, Fort-de-France, which offers more in terms of entertainment and shopping. Finally, it's important to note that while Martinique is a part of France and the EU, it's also a part of the Caribbean, and life can be quite different from mainland France," remarked another expat in Saint-Esprit, Martinique.
