Reykjavík Expat Community for Reykjavík Expats

Welcome to the Expatriates Reykjavík Community!

Velkomin! We welcome you to our Reykjavík expats community! The InterNations network aims to support you when moving to or settling in Reykjavík: Connect with fellow expatriates in Reykjavík, receive helpful advice and information about expat life in Iceland and join our InterNations get-togethers to meet up with other expats from the international community in Reykjavík.

A visit of our community for Paris Expat is recommend if other InterNations chapters across Western Europe are of interest for you. Or your next business trip takes you to our Jakarta Expat chapter…

Enjoy your Reykjavík Expat Experience

The world's northernmost capital of a sovereign state opens its intercultural doors to you, beginning with its attractions such as the Hallgrímskirkja Church, flanked by a statue of Leif Ericsson, the Viking explorer who sailed to North America in the 10th century,, the traditional celebration of Iceland’s the Reykjavik Jazz Festival, to savoring a dish of Þorramatur. The InterNations network is a place made for the Reykjavík expat and offers insider tips and opportunities to ensure that you can make the most of your life as an expat in Iceland. Our members are looking forward to offer their advice and knowledge from experience when you come across one of the many questions about the life as an expatriate in Reykjavík, from ʺAm I entitled to paid holidays and sick pay when employed by an Icelandic company?ʺ to ʺIs after-school care easily available in Iceland?ʺ
