More and more companies are giving their employees the option to work from anywhere, even halfway around the globe. A growing group of remote professionals are working from anywhere. Digital nomads use their remote jobs to allow them to live in tourist hot spots for months at a time. Some people engage in months-long work-cations, combining periods of working and tourism. Many countries with significant tourism sectors suffering from reductions in global travel are offering visas to digital nomads. Digital nomads can be a boon to any economy, spending money, facilitating collaboration and spurring innovation, as well as the economies where they choose.
Work-from-anywhere, where workers enjoy the flexibility to live in a geography of their choice, is here to stay, and countries around the world are in a race to attract the growing class of international remote workers known as digital nomads. Other countries that offer a form of digital nomad visas include Australia, Czech Republic, the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Germany, Thailand, Italy, Spain and Brazil. See the below chart for more information. Proof of income and remote employment are required for these visas. Digital nomads invest their time and money in the local economy, without taking local jobs, and build bridges with local knowledge workers, a win-win for both remote workers and local communities.
