Frequently asked questions

Who is the Iceland remote work visa for?

Iceland's remote work visa is aimed at non-EEA nationals who are employed by or contracted to companies or clients outside Iceland. EEA nationals have freedom of movement and do not need a special visa to live in Iceland.

Can I extend beyond 6 months?

The initial visa covers up to 6 months. Extension options are limited and depend on individual circumstances. If you need a longer stay, we can advise on other Iceland residence permit categories.

Is Iceland expensive for digital nomads?

Iceland is one of the more expensive countries in Europe. However, the quality of life, safety, and unique natural environment attract many nomads for shorter stays. Budget accordingly for accommodation and food costs significantly higher than Southern European destinations.

Do I pay tax in Iceland?

Short-term visitors on the remote work visa may have tax obligations in Iceland depending on the duration of their stay and tax treaty provisions with their home country. We do not provide tax advice; consult a tax advisor regarding your specific situation.
