Turkey officially launches Digital Nomad Visa for previously announced countries

In mid-September this year, Turkey announced the launch of the Digital Nomad Visa, giving remote workers and foreign freelancers the opportunity to legally work in the country for a year. The initiative is an important step in the development of the country's economy and aims to attract skilled professionals working remotely.

Turkey's Digital Nomad Visa is already available to applicants from the following countries, including Germany:

As announced in April this year, the new visa is intended for foreigners aged 21 to 55 who can prove their status as a remote employee. The main requirements include documentary proof of working for a foreign (non-Turkish) company, qualifications and a certain level of income ($3000 per month). The validity of the visa is 12 months with the possibility of extension and obtaining a residence permit if the conditions of the program are met. The visa requires application through an online platform and document verification, which takes about 4 weeks.

The Digital Nomad visa offers a number of benefits:

• work and reside in the country for up to 3 years;
• move with your family if you have sufficient income;
• simplified legalization for family members;
• use free medical services and many others.

The program aims to improve Turkey's image as a remote work center and attract more foreign professionals. Turkey is becoming even more attractive to digital nomads due to its mild climate, diverse cultural heritage and relatively low cost of living.
