Moving to Libya
Last updated on Feb 07, 2024
Summary: Many expats and digital nomads move to Libya for its low cost of living, warm climate, and access to the Mediterranean Sea. People can find a place to live in Libya by searching online for rental properties, or by asking friends and family for recommendations. The most popular cities for expats and digital nomads in Libya are Tripoli, Benghazi, and Misrata.
What do I need to know before moving to Libya?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Libya, they said:
"Libya is a country with a complex political and security situation, so it is important to stay up to date with the latest news and developments. Expats should also be aware of the cultural differences between Libya and their home country, and be respectful of local customs and traditions. It is also important to research the cost of living in Libya, as prices can vary significantly depending on the city and region. Additionally, expats should make sure to obtain the necessary visas and permits before travelling to Libya. Finally, it is important to have a good understanding of the local language, as English is not widely spoken in Libya," commented one expat who made the move to Libya.
