Is it safe to work in Angola?

Hi rahulretail, Angola is generally a safe country to live in, but as with any large city, Luanda has some safety concerns, and you should exercise all necessary precautions. Petty crimes in particular may affect expats in the city - especially at night. Have a read of our Safety in Angola page for more on what you can do to ensure a trouble-free stay in the country.

With regards to your salary, it's not really a very lucrative one for an expat package, but considering your accommodation, food and transport will be covered by your company on top of this, this may help. However, the cost of living in Angola is extremely high, and you need to carefully consider whether this salary is enough to support yourself. Whether you ask for anything else on top of this, will all depend on your particular lifestyle and what is important to you, and also whether you will be supporting a family on this salary - international school fees in Angola can be exorbitant.

See our page on the Cost of Living in Angola for a break down of what you can expect to pay for your basic goods and services while living in Luanda.
