What do I need to know before retiring in Martinique?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Martinique, they said...
"Before retiring in Martinique, expats should be aware of the cost of living, which is higher than in many other Caribbean countries. They should also research the availability of healthcare services and the quality of the healthcare system. Additionally, expats should familiarize themselves with the local culture and language, as French is the official language of Martinique. It is also important to research the local laws and regulations, as well as the tax system, to ensure that all legal requirements are met. Finally, expats should consider the climate and geography of the island, as it can be quite humid and tropical," remarked another expat who made the move to Martinique.
