This tool gives a first-pass filter based on income, savings, and your stated priority. Individual eligibility depends on employer history, criminal record, passport, and family circumstances that the checker cannot evaluate. Always confirm against the official immigration source before applying.

Common questions about digital nomad visa eligibility

How much income do you need for a digital nomad visa in 2026?
As of July 2026, the 12 active digital nomad visas in this checker require roughly $1,400 to $5,000 in documented monthly income. The lowest floor is Colombia at about $1,400/month — three times Colombia’s 2026 minimum wage (COP 5,252,715) — and the highest is Indonesia’s remote-worker E33G KITAS at $5,000/month, or $60,000 a year. Most Western European programs cluster between about $2,850 and $3,985 a month.
Can savings replace income for a digital nomad visa?
Sometimes. A few programs accept a lump-sum savings balance instead of, or alongside, monthly income — for example Mexico’s temporary resident route (about $75,000 in savings) and Indonesia’s E33G. This checker tests both your monthly income and your liquid savings against each country’s rule, so it can still surface a match when income alone falls short.
Which digital nomad visa is easiest to qualify for on income?
Among the 12 covered visas, the lowest income bars are Colombia (about $1,400/month) and Malaysia’s DE Rantau pass (about $2,000/month, the lowest in Asia). Both sit well below the $3,000-plus floors typical of Western Europe, which makes them the easiest to clear on income alone — though passport strength, processing time, and tax treatment still vary by country.
Which digital nomad visas mean no tax on your foreign income?
Four covered destinations do not tax foreign-earned income for nomad-visa holders: Croatia (0% on foreign income during the stay), the UAE (no personal income tax at all), and Costa Rica and Thailand (territorial systems that tax only locally sourced income). Spain, Portugal, and Greece instead offer reduced-rate regimes rather than a full exemption.
Can you bring your family on a digital nomad visa?
Most of the 12 visas let you include a spouse and dependent children, but several raise the income requirement per dependent — Spain and Greece, for example, add a percentage of the base threshold for each family member. The checker’s income test uses the single-applicant floor, so add the dependent uplift from the country guide before you apply.
How long does a digital nomad visa last?
Validity ranges widely across the covered programs — from Croatia’s temporary stay of up to 18 months to Thailand’s DTV at up to 5 years (multi-entry). Renewal terms and any path to permanent residency differ by country, so a longer initial term does not always mean a faster route to settling permanently.
