Question 1

What is a digital nomad visa?

Accepted Answer

A digital nomad visa (also called a remote work visa) is a special visa category that lets you legally live and work remotely in a country for an extended period — typically 1–2 years. Unlike tourist visas, they're designed for people who earn income from abroad.

Question 2

Do I need to speak the local language?

Accepted Answer

No. Most digital nomad visa applications are processed in English or have English-language support. Peninsula handles all communication with the government on your behalf.

Question 3

What income do I need to qualify?

Accepted Answer

Requirements vary by country, typically ranging from $1,500–$3,500/month in provable remote income. Use our income calculator to check your eligibility for specific destinations.

Question 4

Can my family come with me?

Accepted Answer

Many digital nomad visa programs allow dependents (spouse and children). Requirements and fees for dependents vary by country — our team will advise you on the specific requirements.

Question 5

How long does the application take?

Accepted Answer

Processing times vary by country, from as fast as 2 weeks (Estonia e-Residency) to 3 months (some EU countries). Peninsula's typical service window is 4–10 weeks including government processing.

Question 6

What if my application is denied?
