The Philippines has announced a new digital nomad visa, enabling foreign remote workers to live and work temporarily in the country. Announced by President Bongbong Marcos, this initiative aims to enhance tourism and the economy by providing a legal framework for digital nomads. The visa allows non-immigrants to stay for a year, but applicants must meet specific criteria, including proof of remote work, sufficient income, no criminal record, and valid health insurance. This new offering opens inviting opportunities for remote workers seeking a change of scenery and lifestyle.
"To further boost tourism and economy in the country, there is a need to establish a legal framework to facilitate the entry of digital nomads in the country."
"The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) can now issue digital nomad visas to non-immigrant foreigners who wish to live and work in the country for a maximum period of one year."
