Senegal offers an exceptional quality of life praised by both settlers and visitors, combining tradition and modernity, the country offers an ideal environment to achieve, work and do good business. Recent reforms involve land ownership, building permit formalities, labour legislation, taxes, migrating import/export procedures online.
