Working in Montenegro?

  • Tourism is the largest employer here, especially in the summer. In coastal towns such as Budva and Kotor there are plenty of jobs in hotels, restaurants and guided tours. In the winter there are opportunities at ski resorts such as Durmitor. Outside of tourism there are opportunities in the maritime sector and with international companies that are based here.
  • Work culture: the work culture is relaxed and hospitable, but expect a good pace in the tourist season. Networking and relationships are important, and there is a lot of appreciation for team spirit and customer friendliness.

Working as a digital nomad in Montenegro?

  • Favorite locations: Kotor, Budva, Podgorica.

Living in Montenegro?

  • Montenegro offers a relaxed lifestyle with a mix of beautiful nature and a close-knit community. The country is smaller and quieter, offering a higher quality of life for those who enjoy living close to nature.
  • Education: There are a few international schools available for expat families with children.
  • Expat community: Small, and mainly found in the coastal areas.
  • Safety: Generally safe with low crime.
  • Be aware: Montenegrin is the main language (although English is increasingly understood), there are limited job opportunities outside of tourism, and healthcare is not the best.
  • Health insurance: Healthcare is adequate for basic care, but for complex matters you may need to go abroad. So make sure you have your own comprehensive health insurance.
