Canada

Canada is a good option for immigration, because it is recognized as one of the most comfortable countries in the world for living and working. The state government is interested in new residents and is actively working on optimizing migration legislation. Many immigration programs for moving to a permanent place of residence have been approved in the country.

Thanks to an accessible health care system, education and broad employment prospects, Canada will be a reliable and completely safe place for people who plan to settle in a new country.

France

Long a popular tourist destination, France now offers more options for long-term stays.

The most favorable for immigration is the long-term visa for technical workers, which the French government introduced in 2017. The main goal of the program is to raise the technological industry of the country and allow foreigners to issue a residence permit under a simplified system.

The French technical visa gives technical workers, investors and entrepreneurs the right to live and work in France for four years – one of the longest working visa options in Europe. What a foreigner needs to know about employment in France, see the link.

Caribbean basin

Life by the ocean is what most foreigners move to the Caribbean for. Many countries in the region offer a variety of visas for long-term travelers and remote workers. Barbados recently introduced the "Barbados Welcome Stamp" - a special 12-month visa for those who can financially support their stay on the island.

Anguilla and Bermuda offer similar visas that vary in duration and requirements. The Cayman Islands has also introduced a new Global Citizen Concierge program for those looking for a more streamlined permit process.

Turkey

Turkey's rich nature and culture, as well as simplified migration legislation, attract foreigners to the country who want to change their place of residence. The state offers programs for studying foreign students. The country is also trying to attract highly qualified workers and prominent figures.

One of the most popular programs in Turkey is the issuance of a "golden passport" in exchange for investment. Five types of investments are available in the country: buying real estate, government bonds or shares in investment funds, placing a deposit in Turkish banks or starting a business.

Spain

Spain is a popular destination in Europe for travelers and remote workers. Recently, the state introduced a new "digital nomad" visa, which allows you to live in the country for up to 12 months, working in any company. Under certain conditions, the visa can be extended for up to three years.

This visa is part of a new government initiative aimed at the social and economic development of sparsely populated regions of the country. Spain's beach towns and small towns will be the best destination for foreigners who want to escape from the bustling tourist spots and are looking for a quiet life.

Mexico

Mexico is the new hot destination for expats. The country's rich culture and nature attract foreigners who want to live in a new place and explore the country's tourist attractions.

The Mexican government used to offer foreigners a six-month tourist visa, but now most travelers opt for a "temporary resident visa," which is valid for one year and can be extended.

Croatia

Croatia is another country that has picked up the visa trend of "digital nomads" and thereby attracted even more foreigners. Pearl of the Balkans currently offers temporary residence permits for remote workers. The applicant can take his closest relatives with him and stay in the country for one year.

Indonesia

For many years, Indonesia has remained the most popular country among foreigners seeking to temporarily change their place of residence. In recent years, the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected the tourism economy of Indonesia, and especially the island of Bali.

The country's government has announced that in 2023, a five-year visa for long-term travelers and remote workers will start working on the island of Bali. It will be one of the longest available digital visas in the world. Currently, travelers can stay in the country on the basis of a temporary visa issued on arrival (valid for 30 days), a tourist visa, which can be extended for 60 days, or a business visa - up to 180 days.
