How is a Digital Nomad Programme application submitted and how fast is it processed?

Applications under the Digital Nomad Programme are submitted to the Ministry of Industry and Trade with a completed application form and the required supporting documents. There are separate step-by-step guides for the foreign-employee route and the freelancer (trade licence) route.

A key advantage of the programme is speed: the authorities aim to process the long-term visa or long-term residence permit application within 45 days of submission. Always make sure your file is complete, as missing documents are the most common cause of delay.
