The Isle of Man offers more than just rewarding careers, it has excellent healthcare and education systems and a vibrant hospitality scene with over 600 restaurants, bars, and cafes. Thanks to the Island’s short commute times and our beautiful and diverse scenery, there’s more time to do what makes you happy – whether it be exploring the great outdoors or spending extra time with your family.

What else sets us apart?

Low taxation – Isle of Man residents enjoy some of the lowest personal tax rates in Europe, with the higher tax rate capped at 20%. We don’t have stamp duty, corporation or inheritance tax either.

Safety – The Island has one of the lowest crime rates in Europe, ensuring a safe and secure place to live for you and your family.

Stunning scenery – Boasting spectacular and varied natural landscapes, including lush green glens, plantations, long stretches of beach and countryside, the Isle of Man is the only Island nation in the world to be a named a UNESCO Biosphere – a status that celebrates its natural settings. It’s therefore perfect for those that relish the outdoors, with an abundance of activities including a vast array of watersports and sports clubs practicing rugby, football, netball, and hockey to name but a few! Plenty of coastal and inland walkways make it perfect for those that prefer a more leisurely pace too.

Quality of life – With 86% of residents saying their quality of life is excellent, the Island’s welcoming community and low commute times (which on average is less than 20 minutes!) make it the perfect place to find that work-life balance.
