Panama like many other countries around the world has been hit hard by the Covid-19 pandemic. With a tourism sector that contributes 15% to GDP, the severe drop in tourism numbers had a profound effect on the Panamanians.
With the global transformation in how people live and work (the rise of the digital nomad) and to counteract the drop in tourism, the Panama Digital Nomad Visa became a solution. In May 2021 the Panamanian government created by Executive Decree 198 the officially called Shor...

As a digital nomad girl, I’ve worked from many different countries remotely, sometimes on just the tourist entry and sometimes for the longer-term stays I used working visas. I have truly lived the digital nomad lifestyle.
The Covid-19 pandemic has thrown a spanner in the works in that it is now not so easy to country hop anymore. The world of travel has come completely to a standstill. So where do you stay outside your home country do your remote work and get to explore, within limits, your ...

There has been a lot of news for the Croatia Digital Nomad Visa program. The idea came from 36-year-old Dutch entrepreneur Jan de Jong in April 2020 as the country was struggling with the first wave of the Coronavirus pandemic.
