The Ultimate Guide To Work Anywhere ????

So, you’ve seen people living the digital nomad lifestyle, working on the road and travelling to exotic places and you want the same! But you don’t know where to start on that journey, and your mind is filled with questions, concerns and worries.?

I'm sure you're feeling overwhelmed by the idea of navigating the various tax, visa, and legal requirements you'll have to tackle if you're going to work anywhere in the world. It can feel like a minefield…. But let me help!?

There are three points you should keep in mind. Let’s cover them.

1. Contract Types

Before you even start thinking about your digital nomad lifestyle, it's important to consider what type of contract interests you. There are a variety of types of contracts you can take, but here are the three most common:

• Permanent (perm): If you're looking for something more stable and long-term with benefits such as paid holidays, sick leave and pension contributions, then a permanent position may be the best option for you. Perm jobs can be full-time or part-time. Full-time jobs usually require you to work at least 37.5 hours per week and part-time jobs are around 20 hours, although not so commonplace.
• Contract: If you want to be able to move around between jobs easily and have more flexibility with your schedule, becoming a ‘contractor’ may be ideal for you. Whilst these offer more freedom than perm fully time jobs, in most cases, you do not receive employee benefits such as health insurance or other taxes paid by the employee.
• Freelance: Freelance jobs might be right up your street if you're looking for a flexible job where you can set your own hours and take on multiple projects. If you are looking for freelance work, start by browsing Work For Impact , a freelance platform that focuses on purpose-driven work.

2. Right To Work?

Next, you need to think about visas. Generally speaking, to work in a particular country, you must have the right to work there, especially if you’re looking for perm full-time jobs or part-time jobs. In these cases, your future employer may rely on third-party organisations such as Deel , WorkMotion , and many other employee of record (EOR) to make sure they can hire you - even if you are in a country where the company does not know have a legal identity.

Alternatively, if a permanent contract is not so important for you, you may want to consider other routes. For example, if you want to work anywhere in the world, a digital nomad visa might be for you!

The digital nomad visa is a new type of visa that allows qualifying digital nomads to travel around the world with ease and flexibility. It has some benefits over other types of visas, like the fact that it doesn't require an employer or sponsor. The digital nomad visa also doesn't require you to have any particular skills or qualifications — you just need to be able to prove that you can support yourself financially. Over 30 countries are offering this visa, and it is becoming increasingly popular. Depending on the country, you can stay for a minimum of 6 months and up to 5 years in some cases.?

3. Tax?

Finally, you need to consider taxes. In most countries, if you are a foreign remote worker, you can stay and work remotely for up to 183 days in a year without becoming tax liable. After that period, you will become a tax resident in that country on your worldwide income. It’s complicated to explain how this works and what the rules are in every country, so please seek advice from an expert! For example, you can check out John Lee from Work Anywhere .

I hope this gives you a good idea of the three main points that you need to look out for! Now, if you're wondering what to do about finding a remote job, then look no further…
