Where should I setup a bank account in Iceland?
We asked expats in Iceland what banks they use and there advice about banking. They advised...
"Before retiring in Iceland, expats should be aware of the cost of living, which is higher than in many other countries. They should also be aware of the weather, which can be cold and unpredictable. Additionally, expats should research the healthcare system and the availability of medical services. It is also important to research the local culture and customs, as well as the language, to ensure a smooth transition. Finally, expats should be aware of the visa and residency requirements for living in Iceland," said a member in Iceland.
