Turks and Caicos is yet another British island territory in the Caribbean. This archipelago is populated on 8 main islands, but in fact, it consists of over 40 islands.
For expats, Turks and Caicos is mainly attractive to those who want to retreat to a warm, quiet corner and enjoy a slower pace or spend their retirement on beautiful beaches and calm waves. Other major reasons why some decide to make this earthly heaven their home are the stable currency and the tax-free regulations on income, property, and inheritance.
Being a very small state, sea freight options for moving to Turks and Caicos are quite limited. However, we did our best and gathered a few prices which are presented in the tables below.
