Currency Guide for Cameroon (ISO Code: CM)
Traveling to Cameroon for a week of mid-range adventures can be an enriching experience. On average, you should budget approximately 350,000-450,000 CFA Francs (XAF) for a mid-range stay, which should cover food, accommodation, and transport comfortably. Here’s a glimpse of typical daily expenses in Cameroon:
🍽️ Meal at a local restaurant: 2,500-5,000 CFA
☕ Coffee: 500-1,000 CFA
🚍 Public transport fare: 200-1,000 CFA
📶 Prepaid SIM card: Around 5,000 CFA for 30 days
🏨 Budget hotel or Airbnb: Approximately 15,000-30,000 CFA per night.
Based on these costs, Cameroon offers a generally affordable travel experience compared to the United States or the UK, where similar expenses would easily be two to three times higher.
Expat Living Costs in Cameroon
For expats considering a longer-term stay in Cameroon, it's essential to plan your finances effectively. Typical monthly living costs can range from 600,000 to 1,200,000 CFA Francs, depending on lifestyle choices and location. This budget includes rent for a modest apartment, utilities, transportation, food, and entertainment. When it comes to banking, using local banks can be convenient, but ensure you’re aware of their fees and limits. Credit and debit cards are widely accepted in urban areas, yet carrying cash is essential for rural regions and transactions with smaller vendors. Online transfer services like Wise or OFX often yield better exchange rates and lower fees than exchanging cash locally, making them an excellent choice for sending or receiving money internationally.
