10 COUNTRIES TO REMOTE WORK FROM INDIA

Changes in the nature of work that have been overwhelming the globe offer both new opportunities and new challenges and risks for countries, employers, workers, and especially governments. The globalization of markets, allied with dramatic advances in information and telecommunications technologies, now makes it increasingly possible to disaggregate a whole range of services into successive upstream-downstream stages. 

The emergence of ICTs during the last 10 years has made it possible for businesses to implement a broad transformation in the geographic distribution of a wide variety of work activities and functions across the globe, and, for the first time, to locate the processing of services not requiring direct physical customer interface at a distance from their consumption. The services, functions and tasks can now be distributed and carried out consecutively in separate locations in different countries where the requisite skills and expertise are available.

So you’ve decided to work from your comfortable hometown in a new, exciting location. Gorewo can help you out in this situation. Here are the top 10 countries welcoming remote workers:

2. ESTONIA

Estonia launched its new Digital Nomad Visa in August 2020. The visa will allow remote workers to live and work in Estonia for up to a year.

3. BARBODAS

Barbados’ Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley has developed a special 12-month visa for remote workers for up to a year, which means you can relocate yourself, live and work here for up to a year. 

4. GEORGIA

This country has designed a new visa programme for remote workers who are looking to stay and work in the country for six months or even longer. Those who wish to apply will have to earn a minimum of $2000 a month to be able to pay taxes while living in Georgia.

5. DUBAI

This country has also come up with its new visa program where the remote workers along with their families can stay in a city for up to a year and also work remotely for the companies. If your visa gets approved, you will have lots of benefits. You will be allowed to open a local bank account, get internet access, have a local phone number, and even enroll kids in school.

6. BERMUDA
