The digital nomad visa is primarily intended for remote workers who want to combine work and travel, for example. New visa offers will come from 5 countries in 2024.
So, at the beginning of 2024, South Africa announced a new visa program. The launch date has not yet been announced, but those wishing to obtain a visa will have to have an income of at least 55 thousand dollars a year. The authorities believe that this amount will guarantee a good contribution to the economy. The visa period is 3 years.
Japan will also offer a digital nomad visa at the end of March, but with strict requirements. The applicant’s annual income is at least $68,300, and the visa itself will be issued for 6 months and only applicants from the list of countries that have signed a tax information exchange agreement with Japan will be able to participate in the program.
South Korea joins the list of countries and offers a 2-year visa to applicants with an income of $65,000 or more.
The visa program in the Philippines is still under development and details have not been disclosed by the authorities. But it is already known that the visa will be issued for a year with the possibility of extension for another year.
But Andorra has set a quota of 50 nomads to whom it can offer a visa and has already begun accepting applications. The work must comply with certain rules. For example, you cannot provide paid services to local individuals and legal entities.
