No nomad visa we have sourced asks for nothing. What some schemes lack is a fixed income number. They fall into three groups: no amount stated (Argentina, Uruguay, Aruba, Curacao, the Bahamas, Bermuda, Albania), an amount tied to a national wage formula (Bulgaria, Slovenia, Moldova, Romania, Colombia, Ecuador), and savings instead of income (Thailand). Every scheme still wants proof of remote work and, mostly, health insurance. For fixed floors, see the lowest-income ranking.
Group 1: no amount stated on the official page
| Scheme | What the page says | Fee | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Argentina | No fixed minimum; proof of remote work by contract, endorsement or income receipts (translated) | 32 UMSM units, where 1 unit is ARS 1,000 | official page |
| Uruguay | No amount; a sworn declaration for nomads (translated) | 55.71 UI | official page |
| Aruba | No income requirement stated; you must be employed or self-employed in your home country | USD 0 | tourism authority |
| Curacao | No threshold on the FAQ; you must prove location-independent work | ANG 535 | programme FAQ |
| Bahamas | No threshold in the FAQ | USD 1,025 | programme FAQ |
| Bermuda | “Sufficient means” without gainful employment in Bermuda; no amount | see record | government |
| Albania | “Sufficient income” for yourself and dependants; no amount in the law, Art. 68(b) | see record | statute |
Aruba, Curacao and the Bahamas run as short stay programmes run by tourism bodies, not as residence permits. Argentina and Uruguay are the cases where a residence document is issued on a declaration and documents rather than a stated bank test.
Group 2: an amount, but only as a multiple of a national wage
These have a number in law that you have to calculate. The euro or local figure changes with the wage.
| Scheme | The rule as written | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Bulgaria | Average annual income of at least 50 monthly minimum wages, for the previous calendar year (translated) | State Gazette |
| Slovenia | Funds of at least twice the average monthly net salary, from the latest Official Gazette figure; any lawful income source | government |
| Moldova | At least 18 times the forecast average salary for the year (three salaries a month over 6 months) | migration inspectorate |
| Romania | At least 3 times the average gross monthly salary for each of the last six months and the whole visa period | foreign ministry |
| Colombia | 3 times the monthly minimum wage, shown by 3 months of statements | resolution |
| Ecuador | 3 times the basic wage a month from foreign sources, or 36 basic wages a year in savings | portal |
One multiple is now worked: Bulgaria’s 50 minimum monthly wages come to BGN 53,850 for applications in 2026 (our arithmetic: 50 x BGN 1,077, the 2025 minimum wage from the Ministry of Economy page; the wage rises each year, so recheck). For Slovenia, Moldova and Romania the official pages we read do not print a current amount, so we do not convert them. Look up the current wage on the country’s statistics office before you rely on the multiple. For Colombia and Ecuador the 2026 arithmetic is on the lowest-income page.
Group 3: savings instead of income
Thailand’s DTV states no income threshold on the embassy pages we read. It asks for at least THB 500,000 in the bank (the London page gives GBP 12,000 as its equivalent), and the Singapore page says the balance must have been held for the past 3 months (Royal Thai Embassy London). The Thailand DTV guide covers the application.
Lists that call Brazil or Croatia “no income” are wrong
Brazil states USD 1,500 a month or USD 18,000 in savings (Brazil guide). Croatia sets EUR 3,622.50 a month or EUR 43,470 in the bank (Croatia guide). Both are in the tracker with their official sources.
Method
Built from the tracker records checked on 28 and 29 Sept 2026, each from an official government, consulate or tourism-authority page linked in the tables. Wording is paraphrased; translated pages are marked. Georgia’s “Remotely from Georgia” status is left out because we could not confirm it is open (tracker row). See the full visa tracker. This is general information, not immigration advice.
