Thursday, June 27, 2024 With the rise of remote work, digital nomad visas have become a popular option for professionals seeking to live and work abroad. These special visas are designed to attract remote workers by providing them with a legal way to stay in a country for extended periods while working for a foreign employer. Here’s a look at some countries that offer digital nomad visas and what they entail.
Estonia: The Pioneer of Digital Nomad Visas Estonia was one of the first countries to introduce a digital nomad visa in 2020. The Estonian Digital Nomad Visa allows remote workers to live in Estonia for up to a year. Applicants must demonstrate that they work for a company registered outside Estonia, conduct business through a foreign-registered company, or work as freelancers with clients mostly outside Estonia.
The minimum monthly income requirement is €3,504 before taxes. Portugal : The D7 Passive Income Visa Portugal offers the D7 Visa which is popular among digital nomads due to its flexibility. Although not exclusively a digital nomad visa, it allows remote workers with sufficient passive income or earnings from remote work to live in Portugal.
Applicants must show proof of sufficient income to support themselves, typically around €635 per month. The D7 Visa provides a path to residency and potentially citizenship.
