Work remotely from Senegal.
Dakar is West Africa’s most connected city — fast fiber, a growing coworking scene, and a cost of living that makes your remote salary go far. Here’s how to set up your nomad base, legally and comfortably.
Note
Dakar has reliable 4G coverage across most neighborhoods and a growing fiber network. Coworking spaces offer 50-200 Mbps connections. For stays under 90 days, no special visa is required — you can work remotely on a standard tourist entry.
