What do I need to know before retiring in Cyprus?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Cyprus, they said...
"Before retiring in Cyprus, expats should research the cost of living in the area they plan to live in, as well as the availability of healthcare and other services. It is also important to understand the local laws and regulations, as well as the tax implications of living in Cyprus. Additionally, expats should familiarize themselves with the culture and customs of the country, as well as the language. Finally, expats should consider the climate and weather of the area they plan to live in, as well as the availability of recreational activities," remarked another expat who made the move to Cyprus.
"Be prepared for a very slow pace and people who are not interested in hustle and work. It is a great place to relax," explained one expat living in Limassol, Cyprus.
