Hello and welcome on board Rose !

I have created this new thread from your post on the Montenegro forum so that members can help you.

I didn't find any digital nomad visa on the official website :

Maybe you could contact the competent authorities to find out.

All the best

Hi,

Thank you so much for your response.

I will check out the link immediately.

Check a fellow Expat, Jonathan Howe's website, you should find plenty of information for Digital Nomads there:

Here is also a lot of useful information:

Finally check this article suggesting Tivat as an ideal location for DN in Montenegro:

Good luck !

Proof of employment contract with a foreign company and minimum income of €1,350 Euros for the previous 12 months as proof of remote employment

-> I guess it is complicated most of digital nomads are working for themselves with their own company so they don't have a real working agreement. I'm curious to know how nomads are dealing with this

If I were working as a digital nomad, I would want two reliable and independent forms of Internet connectivity.  My first choice for a primary source would be Starlink. Unfortunately, Montenegro has erected high barriers to the service. If you check the Starlink service map, it will perpetually say: "coming in (some date in the near future)." It has said that since 2020. The terrestrial-based service providers mostly route through Serbia (do a traceroute and you'll see ".rs" routers in the path), so political conditions could result in loss of all service (which my be exactly what the politicos want) -- putting you out of business. And, by the way, all the ATMs and credit card services would quit as well, so bugging out may also be a challenge. You could find yourself like the lyric in Hotel California: "You can check out any time you like ... but you can never leave."

But what do I know? I was only one of the two US cyber security incident responders to the last cyber attack in August 2022.

Just some caveats...
