Antigua and Barbuda digital nomad visa

Antigua and Barbuda offers 365 beaches and a relaxed Caribbean pace under one of the region's longer nomad visas — two full years. You'll need $50,000/year in income and a $1,500 fee, but there's no local income tax and approval is fast. A strong pick for a longer Caribbean stay, family included.
