Moving to the Bahamas | Emigrating to the Bahamas
Moving to the Bahamas: The Bahamas is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the world: it has enchanting sandy beaches, a relaxed atmosphere, and friendly, open and extroverted people. On top of this, it has incredible nature, fascinating landscapes and a high quality of life. This is why more and more expats are moving to and realising their dreams in the Bahamas.
Of course, this is not surprising, considering that the archipelago is a real paradise on earth and the fact that you can have the opportunity to live in a beautiful place like this, instead of just spending your holidays there.

Cost of living
The cost of living is certainly not one of the reasons why expats choose to move to the Bahamas. This is due to the fact that most goods are usually pretty expensive, more so than in Central and Western Europe, albeit not quite as high as they are in Switzerland. The reason is simply that most of the goods available on the island have to be imported, which causes a relatively high price level. Therefore, the Bahamas is definitely not a country to consider without significant savings or income.
Property
Real Estate in the Bahamas is incredibly expensive, which is why you have to invest large sums of money if you want to own property in this island nation. Additionally, the rents are relatively high, which should also be considered when moving to the Bahamas.
Wealthy expats also have the opportunity to buy their own private island, which can then be completely customized.

Working in the Bahamas
Anyone researching the Bahamas as a place to work will find it relatively difficult to find an attractive job. This is because, although several international companies have locations there, they are only present to enjoy the tax benefits of the island state and they usually have no employees.
The best opportunities for expats wanting to work in the Bahamas are in the tourism industry. If you have good language skills, you should find it relatively easy to find a suitable job.
Linguistic proficiency
Since English is the official language in the Bahamas, it is no problem for the majority of expats to integrate quickly. People that do not speak English, at least to a moderate level, should definitely learn the language before making the move. If English language skills are limited, it will be difficult to get involved in everyday life, to learn the culture, and to get to know the local people.
