Frequently asked questions
Do I need to pay tax on foreign income on a digital nomad visa?
Usually no, as long as you stay below the host country's tax-residency threshold (often 183 days). Most DNVs are designed so remote foreign-source income is not taxed locally. But if you overstay and cross the threshold, the host country may tax your worldwide income. Check each program's tax treatment in its guide.
What income counts toward the DNV requirement?
Gross income from sources outside the host country, proven with bank statements and tax returns. Most programs accept employment, freelance, and business income; some also accept investment, dividend, or rental income. Income from local clients in the host country usually does not qualify.
Can I bring my family on a digital nomad visa?
Many programs include a spouse, and some include dependent children. This checker has a 'bring my spouse' filter that narrows to programs where spouse inclusion is part of the standard permit. Family reunification beyond a spouse often requires a separate application.
Does a digital nomad visa lead to permanent residency?
Some do, some do not. Use the 'path to permanent residency' filter to see only programs that offer a route to PR. Even where a path exists, it usually requires years of continuous residence, language proficiency, and meeting income thresholds throughout.
