Hi - I am wondering if anyone has overstayed their tourist visa while in Portugal? I am looking to go to Lisbon but I don’t meet the digital nomad visa requirements (10k in the bank, plus there’s a huge wait).

Do borders check how long you’ve stayed? Has anyone got a fine? Which countries are strict and which are not?

    Working remotely as a software dev or business analyst etc is not passive income. Passive income is having a million quid invested in the s&p and you living off the interest.

    Tell the person who stamps your passport that you’re visiting their country with the intention of working remotely for a foreign company and see what happens.

      I know you taking the piss now, but in Canada thats explicitly allowed on a tourist visa.

      In the US though, yeah you getting denied entry haha.
