Denmark

Europe

Denmark has no digital nomad visa, and full tax liability can attach with zero days counted the moment you take up a Danish home, or retroactively to day one once a continuous stay passes six months. Its tax treaty with Spain was terminated, Denmark refused to sign the EU cross-border telework agreement, and crypto gains are taxed as personal income at up to about 52 percent with losses relieved at only 26 percent.
