01 · OVERVIEWWhat makes this program stand out

Living in Cape Verde while working for clients abroad is what the Digital Nomad Visa is designed for. The Cape Verde Digital Nomad Visa is a residency program designed for remote workers who operate location-independently and require visa sponsorship in Cape Verde. This program enables internationally mobile professionals to establish legal residence in the country while continuing to work for foreign employers or run their own businesses remotely.

Qualification is based on demonstrating stable remote income. Applicants must prove a minimum monthly income of EUR 1,500 to meet the financial threshold for approval. This requirement confirms that the applicant can support themselves financially without accessing the local labor market.

The visa operates as a structured legal pathway for digital workers. It provides formal residency status specifically for those whose professional activity takes place entirely outside Cape Verde's domestic employment system. The program targets self-employed professionals, freelancers, and employees of foreign companies who can perform their work from any location with internet connectivity.
