Most Scandinavian countries do not have a traditional digital nomad visa, but there are still options worth knowing about. This guide covers what each country actually offers, so you can plan your move without the guesswork.
Digital nomad visas and self-employed visas are often confused, but they work very differently. Knowing which one you need before you apply will save you a lot of time and frustration.
Greece’s Golden Visa grants renewable five-year EU residency through investment, from €250,000 for a commercial conversion up to €800,000 in Athens and the top islands. Here is who it suits, the investment routes, and how it compares to Portugal.
Dominica’s citizenship-by-investment program is one of the world’s cheapest and fastest: from US$200,000, no residency requirement, and a passport in a few months. The catch is tax, since your worldwide income is taxed if you become a Dominica tax resident.
We rank the best citizenship-by-investment options for U.S. citizens, weighing cost, speed, and travel access. With Malta’s EU route now closed, the Caribbean programs (Grenada, Antigua and Barbuda) lead the field.
Montenegro’s citizenship-by-investment program closed at the end of 2022. Here’s how it worked, what it cost (EUR250,000-plus in real estate and EUR200,000 in donations), and where to look now for a second passport.
Spain shut down its golden (investor) visa on April 3, 2025, largely to ease housing pressure. Here’s how the program worked, why it ended, and the residency routes, like the non-lucrative and digital nomad visas, that can still get you to Spain.

An EU passport lets you live, work, and study across all 27 member states and travel visa-free to much of the world.

Italy’s digital nomad visa lets non-EU remote workers live in the country for a year and travel Schengen freely, with a manageable €28,000 income bar. Here’s what you need, what it costs, and where the process still gets murky.
Greece and Portugal run two of Europe’s most popular golden visas, both at roughly EUR 500,000, but they suit different goals since Portugal dropped its real-estate route in 2023 while Greece kept it. Here is how they compare on cost, residency, and citizenship.
