Vanuatu is a South Pacific island nation with 83 islands. It has no income tax, wealth tax, or inheritance tax, making it a haven for investors and digital nomads. English, French, and Bislama are Vanuatu’s official languages, reflecting its colonial history. The island is a dream for divers and snorkelers, with spectacular coral reefs, underwater caves, and a sunken luxury liner turned marine wonderland. It is just a three-hour flight from Sydney, Australia, and the local currency, the VUV, has an exchange rate of approximately 1 Indian Rupee = 1.40 VUV. It ranks as one of the happiest nations on Earth, thanks to its strong sense of community, simple way of life, and deep connection to nature. The national drink, kava, is a mildly sedative beverage made from the kava root, and locals gather at kava bars to unwind, share stories, and embrace the island’s relaxed vibe. Don’t leave without trying a shell!
