Where should I setup a bank account in Papua New Guinea?
We asked expats in Papua New Guinea what banks they use and there advice about banking. They advised...
"Before retiring in Papua New Guinea, expats should be aware of the country's tropical climate and the potential for natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and cyclones. Expats should also be aware of the country's high crime rate and the need to take extra precautions when travelling. Additionally, expats should research the cost of living in the country and the availability of healthcare and other services. Finally, expats should be aware of the cultural differences between their home country and Papua New Guinea, and be prepared to adapt to the local customs and traditions," wrote a member who made the move to Papua New Guinea.
