Where should I setup a bank account in Bray?

Answer this Question

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

"Expats considering retirement in Bray, should be aware that the cost of living can be high, especially when it comes to housing and healthcare. They should also know that Ireland has a public healthcare system, but many residents also choose to have private health insurance for more immediate access to specialists and procedures. Understanding the tax system is crucial as Ireland has a double taxation agreement with many countries, which means you won't have to pay tax in two countries. However, it's important to consult with a tax advisor to understand your personal situation. The weather in Bray, like much of Ireland, is often cool and rainy, so expats from warmer climates may need time to adjust. English is the primary language spoken in Bray, but learning a few phrases in Irish (Gaelic) can be beneficial and appreciated by locals. Bray is known for its vibrant arts scene, beautiful seaside views, and proximity to Dublin, providing plenty of opportunities for leisure and cultural activities. Public transportation is widely available in Bray, with regular train and bus services to Dublin and other parts of the country. Finally, it's important to understand the visa and residency requirements for retiring in Ireland. Non-EU citizens will generally need to apply for a visa and show proof of sufficient income or savings to support themselves," remarked another expat who made the move to Bray, Ireland.
