Best nomad visas if you don't earn a high income

Most nomad visas demand €3,000+/month. Here are solid options with thresholds many freelancers can actually meet.

Latin America leads on affordability

Colombia's nomad visa asks roughly $980/month and runs up to two years; Brazil sits around $1,500/month; Argentina has a low bar and a friendly cost of living. All three are good first bases for newer freelancers.

Georgia: visa-free entry, simple stay

Many nationalities can enter Georgia visa-free for a full year, and the 'Remotely from Georgia' programme welcomes remote workers from ~$2,000/month. Low taxes for small businesses make it a long-time nomad favourite.

Watch the fine print

Low income thresholds sometimes come with bigger savings requirements or shorter stays. Always check the savings figure and renewal terms on the program page — and track it, because these are exactly the rules that move.
