Cape Town Expat Community for Cape Town Expats

Welcome to the Expatriates Cape Town Community!

Siya namkela nonke, welkom, isibingelelo and welcome to our community for Cape Town expats! Our private network helps you to settle in easily when moving to or living abroad in Cape Town: Get to know like-minded expatriates in Cape Town in a casual way, find reliable information and tips about expat life in South Africa and meet fellow expats from Cape Town’s international community at our first-class InterNations events.

Curious to explore other communities in Africa, e.g. our chapter for Cairo expats? Or you might think of stopping by at our expat Buenos Aires community on your next weekend trip.

Make the most of your Cape Town Expat Life

The city on the cape of good hope, also known as Ikapa, offers an exciting intercultural experience for expats, starting with cultural highlights, like the colourful, quaint streets of Bo-Kaap, the folkloristic festivities on the occasion of South Africa’s the Day of Reconciliation, up to getting a taste of traditional bobotie. The InterNations community helps you as an Cape Town expat to enjoy your expat stay in South Africa to the fullest. Our members have already come across many of the questions you’ll have when starting your expatriate life in Cape Town and kindly offer you their assistance, from ʺWhich natural hazards may affect my stay in South Africa?ʺ up to ʺWhich types of insurance does an expat commonly need? Household insurance? Car insurance? Anything else?ʺ.
