The Digital Nomad Visa: Everything Indian Remote Workers Need To Know

Being able to travel freely while keeping a full-time job has always seemed impossible. As a result of the recent world events, this notion seems to be more achievable than ever. One decent take away from the pandemic has been the increase in remote work. Companies adapting to people’s lifestyles have led to an increase in productivity and employee satisfaction. Taking note of the evolving work culture many countries are now offering remote workers digital nomad visas.

In recent years the term digital nomads is used to describe people who work remotely and telecommute rather than physically being present at a company’s office. This practice is actively shaping many successful companies and is the embodiment of a healthy work culture.

As the tourism industry continues to struggle with people remaining reluctant to travel, this move will attract more visitors while providing an opportunity for homebound workers to change pace and adapt to a refreshing environment. The earlier requirement for tourist visas has been replaced as 25+ regions have now launched visa programmes that enable travellers to work legally, longer and more freely. It’s also a great opportunity for freelancers to expand their connections beyond one country. Additionally, these visas are also available to certain students, although the costs and requirements may vary.
