Guernsey

Europe

Guernsey's Open Market lets a British or Irish passport holder buy their way into the island with no work permit and no wealth test, but the digital-nomad position is the harshest in the region, an ordinary visitor gets zero work rights and even a foreign employer's remote work is capped at 10 days in any 30-day window. A qualifying Open Market newcomer gets a GBP 60,000 tax cap for 4 years, but 12 of 16 common nationalities have no tax treaty with Guernsey at all.
