(FAQs) – Estonia Digital Nomad Visa for Indian Applicants
Unlike tourist or regular work visas, the Estonia Digital Nomad Visa is tailor-made for remote workers. It allows you to legally live in Estonia while working for your existing employer, clients, or your own business — without changing your job or business setup. It’s a legal bridge between your current career and a European lifestyle.
If you are an Indian citizen who:
- Works remotely for a company outside Estonia
- Runs your own online business registered outside Estonia
- Freelances for international clients
- Has a steady income (ideally €3,500+ per month)
then you are the perfect candidate. If you’re earning in India but want to enjoy Europe’s work-life balance — this visa is made for you.
Estonia is known as Europe’s most digitally advanced country. From e-Residency to seamless online government services, you can manage almost everything from your laptop. You also get Schengen travel freedom, affordable living, a booming tech scene, and a peaceful, safe environment.
- Short-Term Visa (C-Type): Up to 90 days within 180 days
- Long-Term Visa (D-Type): Up to 1 year, renewable
