Where should I setup a bank account in Kefalonia?

Answer this Question

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

"Expats considering retirement in Kefalonia should be aware of several important factors. Firstly, the cost of living in Kefalonia is generally lower than in many Western countries, but it's still important to have a solid financial plan in place. Healthcare in Greece is of a good standard, but it's recommended to have comprehensive health insurance. The official language is Greek, and while English is widely spoken in tourist areas, learning some basic Greek phrases can be beneficial. The climate in Kefalonia is Mediterranean, with hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. The island is known for its relaxed pace of life, which can be a big adjustment for those used to a faster-paced lifestyle. The local cuisine is Mediterranean, with a focus on fresh, local produce and seafood. Kefalonia is well-connected to the mainland and other islands by ferry, but public transportation on the island itself is limited, so having a car can be useful. The island is generally safe, but like anywhere, it's important to take basic precautions to protect yourself and your property. Finally, it's important to understand the local customs and traditions, as well as the legal requirements for residency, which can be complex and may require the assistance of a lawyer or immigration expert," wrote a member who made the move to Kefalonia, Greece.
