Remote work visas drive relocation to destinations like Bermuda and Iceland

As remote work becomes a permanent fixture of professional life, many workers are utilizing remote work visas to relocate to international destinations. Countries and territories are increasingly offering these programs to boost economic activity by attracting foreign remote workers, freelancers, and entrepreneurs.

Visa requirements vary significantly by location. For instance, Iceland targets high-income professionals with a minimum monthly income requirement of approximately $8,000. In contrast, Bermuda offers a ‘Work From Bermuda’ certificate that does not set a specific income threshold, requiring only that applicants demonstrate substantial means or a continuous source of income. These programs are also becoming accessible to university students.
