Answer

digital nomad visa requirements

The digital nomad visa began as a pandemic-era experiment in tourism recovery. In 2026 it is a mainstream instrument of economic policy, and the design differences between programmes have become the story.

  • Tax clarity: whether the visa grants a defined non-resident status or leaves holders exposed to local taxation after 183 days.
  • Family provisions: dependants, schooling and spousal work rights.
  • Renewal and residency pathways, which determine whether holders spend or settle.
  • Healthcare access and whether private cover is mandated at a realistic price.
