VizaRemote work visas have exploded in popularity. We round up every country with a dedicated digital nomad or remote worker visa program.
The digital nomad visa revolution is in full swing. Since 2020, the number of countries offering remote worker visa programs has grown to over 25.
What Is a Digital Nomad Visa?
A digital nomad visa allows location-independent workers to live in a country long-term while working for employers outside that country. Most programs require: proof of remote income, minimum monthly income threshold, health insurance, and a clean criminal record.
