Healthcare, taxes & language
The decisive three for a longer stay — with a source to verify each yourself.
Healthcare
One public acute-care hospital (King Edward VII Memorial, Hamilton) run by the Bermuda Hospitals Board plus private clinics; complex cases are routinely referred overseas, mainly to the US.
Tip: pair with travel-medical + medical-evacuation cover.
Tax on foreign & pension income
Bermuda imposes no personal income, capital gains or inheritance tax, so foreign-source income and pensions received by residents are not taxed locally.
Not tax advice — confirm with a local professional.
English proficiency
English is the official language and is spoken natively across the island, including in Hamilton and St. George's.
