Visas can be a bane for the fluid-lifestyles of the digital nomad. That’s why the Estonian government is developing a digital nomad visa after noticing that the main barrier to entry workers wanting to work abroad was attaining a proper visa. So how will it work in practice? Though the visa is still in a preparation phase, Estonia expects it will be launched in early 2019. Nomads who obtain the visa will be able to legally reside in Estonia for 365 days, and will also be entitled to a Schengen visa which allows them to visit member countries for up to 90 days.
