Frequently asked questions
What is a digital nomad visa?
A digital nomad visa is a long-stay permit designed for remote workers who earn income from outside the host country. Unlike tourist visas (limited to 30-90 days) and traditional work visas (which require a local employer), nomad visas let you live legally for 6 months to several years while working for foreign clients or employers.
Which country has the cheapest nomad visa?
In terms of income requirements, Colombia (~$900/month), Ecuador ($1,350), Uruguay ($1,500), Brazil ($1,500), and Mauritius ($1,500) tend to have the lowest thresholds. Georgia offers a de facto 1-year stay with just a registered remote work commitment. In terms of application fees, Mauritius and Georgia stand out as essentially free.
Do I have to pay tax in the host country?
It depends on the country and your length of stay. Many nomad visas explicitly exempt visa holders from income tax (Croatia, Malta with 10% flat, UAE at 0%). Others treat you as a tax resident once you cross 183 days (Colombia, Portugal, Spain). Some have special regimes like Greece’s 50% discount or Italy’s impatriate deduction. Always check with a local tax advisor.
Can I bring my family?
Most digital nomad visas let you include a spouse and dependent children, usually requiring additional income proof (often +25% to +50% per dependent). A few programmes — Czech Republic’s Zivnostensky and Hungary’s White Card — don’t accommodate families under the same application.
Can I convert a nomad visa to permanent residency?
Some programmes — Spain, Portugal, Greece, Malta, Italy, Andorra — offer a direct pathway to long-term or permanent residency if you maintain the visa and meet integration criteria. Others (Croatia, Iceland, Japan) are explicitly non-convertible and you must re-qualify under a different permit.
How up-to-date is this data?
This comparator was last updated April 2026. Nomad visa programmes change frequently — minimum income thresholds, processing times, and tax rules are adjusted regularly. Always verify the latest requirements on the official government site before applying, and consider using a specialist visa service.
