Become a Digital Nomad in Uruguay!
Very simple application process
To apply for a 6-month stay as a digital nomad, after entering Uruguay as a regular tourist, you must complete an online form with personal information and a sign affidavit were you state that you have the means to support yourself financially.
Digital nomads looking to come to Uruguay must be independent workers (freelance) or employed by a foreign company, for this permit does not allow to be employed on a Uruguayan payroll.
After six months, you may apply for an additional 6-month extension or, if you have fallen in love with the country and want to settle there, you can apply for a temporary (up to 2 years) or permanent residency.
Furthermore, in Uruguay, the export of technological services is tax-exempt. A great advantage for digital nomads working in technology!
​
*Please note that the Digital Nomad Permit does not account for a visa, if your country requires one, you should start this process before working on your Permit.
