I am currently thinking of moving to Benin Republic. If any one of you is currently residing in Benin, I would like to know the cost of living, including residency, housing and other amenities that one has to pay for and definitely the lifestyle. |

In terms of company setup, what are the cost and benefits? |
Re: Moving To Benin Republic by philip0906(m): 7:27am On Jul 14, 2010 |
@pac2 well it all depends on how good ur market strategy is. . .companies r usually slammed with high taxes yearly but of course u can always find ur way around |
Re: Moving To Benin Republic by kuzina(f): 1:32pm On Jul 14, 2010 |
Thanks for the info. What about issues like residency permit. Do you require a residency permit to stay in Benin because I will be moving with my family. What about security , it is very safe to live in Benin. |

Money is not an issue for me. I don't need to work. I am actually moving down from the U.S. I was thinking of moving down to Lagos but after I evaluated a lot of issues, I came up with staying in Benin which is close to home. If I ever have to do anything in Lagos, all it would take me would be a couple of hours by road. 1 Like |

Benin being an ECOWAS member should not demand residence permit from Nigerians residing there. |
Re: Moving To Benin Republic by philip0906(m): 5:52pm On Jul 16, 2010 |
Posted by: snowdrops u right!dats how its meant 2 be BUT its actually not so. . .u'll actually need a residence permit if u don't want 2 be disturbed and especially when setting up a company or opening a bank account. @pac2 atleast a month will do. . . |

How do I go about getting a resident permit. Is it as simple as filling out a form or are you required to gather lots of documents. |

Cotonu is an easy town to navigate it has three major roads running east to west Porto Novo to the east is the political capital to the North you have livingstone street where you will find the City best Restaurants The lifestyle is not much different from the one in the USA outside the city you have numbers of sandy beaches you can visit on the weekends speaking French or Yoruba is a plus 1 Like |
