Remote workers who make at least $2,750 a month can apply to Portugal
‘digital-nomad visa’ starting October 30. Here’s how it stacks up to similar programs in Europe.
Portugal recently released the requirements for its highly anticipated “digital-nomad visa,” allowing remote workers who make four times its national minimum wage to live and work in the picturesque European nation. That calculates to about $2,750 a month.

Starting October 30, remote workers can apply for either a temporary-stay visa of up to one year or a residency permit that can be renewed for up to five years.

You can apply at a Portuguese Consulate in your home country or at Portugal’s immigration agency, Serviço de Estrangeiros e Fronteiras. On top of proof of income for the past three months, applicants must submit tax-residency documents and a contract of employment (or proof of self-employment).

One of the program’s biggest selling points is that recipients can travel visa-free throughout the Schengen Area, a region containing 26 European Union member countries where travelers can move freely without dealing with border control.
