Dubai

In October 2020, Dubai launched a virtual work program accepting visa applicants worldwide. Once accepted, applicants have access to phone lines, resident ID cards, banking facilities, and the ability to rent accommodation, rent or buy a car, and send children to school. You can also enter Dubai on a tourist visa before committing to the full-year program. Additionally, you can have a multiple entry visa during the tenure of the program, but if you are away from Dubai for more than six months continuously, your visa will be nullified. The UAE does not impose any personal income tax.

Estonia

Estonia is a burgeoning international tech hub, so it’s no big surprise that they offer an e-residency program for foreign online entrepreneurs, along with a digital nomad visa for freelancers and remote workers. The latter allows foreign nationals to work in Estonia for up to a year for a business of their own that is registered abroad, or in a remote position for a foreign employer. If a visa holder stays in Estonia for more than 183 days in a consecutive 12 month period, they will be required to pay taxes in Estonia.
