What do I need to know before moving to Congo?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Congo, they said...

"Expatriates should be aware that the Democratic Republic of Congo is a large and diverse country with a complex political and social history. It is important to research the local culture and customs before moving to Congo, as well as the current security situation. Expats should also be aware that the infrastructure in Congo is limited and that access to basic services such as electricity, water, and internet can be unreliable. It is also important to note that the cost of living in Congo is relatively high, and expats should budget accordingly. Finally, expats should ensure that they have the necessary visas and permits to live and work in Congo," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Congo.
