Digital nomad visa income requirements
How income thresholds are calculated with dependents
Each country sets a base monthly income requirement for a single person. If you're bringing a spouse, child, or other dependent, most countries add a dependent multiplier - typically 35% of the base amount per additional family member. For example, Portugal's base requirement is 3,550 USD monthly for one person. With a spouse (family size 2), it becomes 3,550 + (3,550 × 0.35) = 4,793 USD. Each additional dependent adds another 1,243 USD. Countries vary in how strictly they apply this, so always confirm on the official immigration site.
Income conversion and tax implications
Income requirements are shown here in USD, but you'll convert your actual earnings from whatever currency you receive them in. Check the current exchange rate before applying. Separately, many digital nomad visas offer favorable tax treatment: some countries exempt foreign-earned income entirely, while others reduce tax rates for new residents. However, these benefits have conditions and may expire. Read the tax note for each country carefully and consult a tax professional in your home country about reporting obligations.
FAQ
Do I need to earn in USD specifically?
No. All income thresholds in this calculator are shown in USD for consistency, but you convert at whatever your current exchange rate is. If you earn 3,000 EUR monthly and the current rate is 1 EUR = 1.10 USD, that's 3,300 USD equivalent. Use that number in the calculator. Exchange rates change daily, so always check the current rate on XE.com or your bank before applying for a visa.
How do family size and dependents affect income requirements?
Most countries require higher income if you're bringing dependents. This calculator uses a 35% dependent multiplier: if the base requirement is 3,000 USD and you have a spouse or child (family size 2), you need 3,000 + (3,000 × 0.35) = 4,050 USD. Each additional dependent adds another 35% of the base amount. This varies by country - some weight dependents differently - so confirm exact requirements on the issuing country's official site.
Are these thresholds the only requirements for visa approval?
No. Income is usually one of several requirements. Most visas also ask for proof of health insurance, a clean background check, a valid passport, and sometimes proof of banking records or client contracts. Some countries impose additional requirements like being a non-resident in your home country or passing a character assessment. This calculator only checks income qualification - you must research and meet all other criteria on the official immigration website.
