Estonia
Europe
Estonia's e-Residency is a digital identity only, it grants no residency of any kind, and its flat 22 percent tax on worldwide income backdates to your first day once you cross 183 days or hold a permanent home. Corporate tax still sits at 0 percent on retained profit though, and the Digital Nomad Visa unlocks up to 365 days for remote workers earning roughly EUR 4,500 a month.
