Hi,
I need some advice from those who left their country to permanently ore temporary live in Tanzania. How did you bring your money over (cash)? Will you recommend to keep your money abroad or bring it over? Which bank will you recommend in Tanzania (Dar es salaam)? Does any of you have experience with Charles Schwab bank to withdraw money in Tanzania free of charge?
Thank you
Bring money over

I still keep my money abroad and just withdraw when I need, as I know FNB ATM has the lowest cost to withdraw.
No experience with Charles Shcwab, never heard of it actually.
Do not keep alot of cash with you or at home, get a mobile money sim card (MPESA or TIGO Pesa) and keep your money in there.
