Additional notes

Angola does NOT have a dedicated digital nomad visa. Luanda (capital) is notoriously one of the world's most expensive cities — costs comparable to New York or London ($2,500–$5,000+/month for Western-standard lifestyle). This is primarily due to oil wealth driving up prices rather than quality of life for expatriates. Portuguese is the official language. Angola is Africa's third-largest oil producer. Improving political environment — transitioning from long authoritarian rule. Despite high costs, some oil industry professionals and adventurous nomads base here. National parks and Atlantic coastline are beautiful but infrastructure outside Luanda is very basic. Yellow fever vaccination is mandatory. Monitor evisa.minjusdh.gov.ao for any future digital nomad program.
