Before moving to Sharjah, expats should be aware that the city is a dry city, meaning that the sale and consumption of alcohol is prohibited. Additionally, Sharjah is a conservative city, so visitors should be mindful of local customs and dress modestly. Expats should also be aware that Sharjah is a car-dependent city, so having a car is essential for getting around. Finally, expats should be aware that the cost of living in Sharjah is relatively low compared to other cities in the UAE.
