Most people have never heard of the “Digital Nomad Visa“, but for those in the know, it’s the next big thing to unlocking freedom. The digital nomad lifestyle is more than just a trend, it’s a new way of working that is here to stay.
All indications are showing the digital nomad visa is growing in popularity because of the rising #wfh revolution. Those who have the good fortune of working from home are starting to move their remote working to another location.
A dream location… Their dream location… And this VISA is helping them to do it. It may sound like a dream but in fact, many countries are developing ways to attract this remote workforce.

Many Nomadics are relocating to palm-fringed island nations, the sort you would normally visit on vacation.
The Digital Nomad
When you’re a digital nomad, you usually won’t be taking one of the local jobs, but, on the other hand, you will be spending money on goods and services. Think about it, a resident who spends but doesn’t cost makes a lot of sense for the economy of any country.
Now the digital nomad is finally established as a sizable chunk of the world’s workforce. Because of this, remote work visas are becoming much easier to find.
Some of the nations interested in attracting the digital nomad are the African island nation of Mauritius and the Caribbean islands of Barbados, Antigua, and Bermuda. All launched one-year digital nomad visas recently. Preliminary charges can vary from a few hundred dollars to a few thousand depending on the country in question.
In return, tax incentives are available to the digital nomads. Estonia and Georgia also have similar provisions. And the Maldives’ luxury resort island Vakkaru has packages for long-term nomadic remote workers.
Barbados was first in mid-July with its 12-month Welcome Stamp program. In September, foreign freelancers and entrepreneurs in the Indonesian island of Bali were pushing for the government to grant them digital visas.
When you think about it, it’s not as odd as it may sound. Tourism was hurt bad during 2020 and 2021 may not be a whole lot better from current predictions.
Unsurprisingly then, normally busy tourism destinations are bending over backward to attract the digital nomad and remote worker to their shores. No quarantines or frequent visa renewals required. Holiday destinations are now pitching themselves as safe and fun beachfront WeWorks.
The digital nomad is the new tourist. And this tourist is the kind who stays on.
Vakkaru Maldive Launches a “Work Well” Package For The Digital Nomad
A free offer for all who stay 21 days or longer, Vakkaru Maldives’ “Work Well” package gives guests an oceanfront office and access to a wellbeing program during their extended stay.
The package includes an upgrade to a bigger villa with a study kitted out with a printer and office supplies.
As part of the package, each guest also gets a “Vacay PA”. As well as offering traditional butler services, these staff members can help with day-to-day tasks such as printing documents, confirming flight information, setting up meetings, and managing your work schedules.
If guests fancy a change of scene for when they look up from their laptop, their Vacay PA will move their office from their private study to an “Ocean office”. With an outdoor work station with wifi access, guests can gaze up at the Indian ocean when they’re in need of a screen break.
The Maldives reopened its borders to travellers from the UK in July 2020 and, since September 10, the island nation requires mandatory negative Covid-19 PCR tests for all arriving passengers. Negative test results – taken no more than 72 hours prior to arrival – must be presented upon landing in the Maldives.
All travellers also need to fill in a Traveller Health Declaration form 24 hours before their departure to the archipelago.
Becoming a digital nomad is not as hard as you may think. Depending on your current knowledge and skill-set, you could easily be able to start living your dreams tomorrow.
Why get a digital nomad visa?
As a digital nomad, you will constantly be facing immigration bureaucracy. With that said, sometimes you just need a home location for all those long-term stays. There are times when traveling can turn a little mundane. You get to the point when you just feel like spending a month or two in one place and getting some much-needed work done.
In many parts of the world, it can be difficult trying to securing a visa that is more than 90 days. In some cases, the maximum visa duration is capped at 30 days. This is why digital nomad visas have been gaining popularity in many countries around the world.
Looking to the future, the data is clearly showing that remote workers will be with us for some time to come. In fact, remote workers are growing in numbers every day.

Georgia
Georgia has some of the best natural views in the world. If you can prove that you have consistent employment and health insurance, you will be able to secure a remote work visa in Georgia.


In addition to the countries listed above, it’s anticipated that more countries will wake up and join the list of eager countries wanting your residency. Countries like Indonesia are soon to be the next on the list to add a digital nomad visa.
It may be common in a little over a decade for most countries to have remote work visas. With this in mind, now is the best time for anybody still working a desk job to start a new life as a remote worker.
It might be time to give it some serious thought.
