Uruguay for digital nomads

Montevideo's waterfront, Atlantic beaches and an unhurried pace.

Uruguay lets you live there for a year as a digital nomad with a provisional identity document: six months, renewable once for another six, to work remotely for entities abroad. There is no minimum income: a sworn statement that you have enough funds is enough. You enter as a tourist and apply online or at the National Immigration Directorate.
