For Journalists and Researchers

Nomad Almanac is a sourced reference on visas, taxes, residency, and daily life for remote workers. Every country page works from primary government material, and every city page is built from current cost, housing, and connectivity data. If you are reporting on remote-work relocation, digital nomad visas, or tax residency, the editor is available for background and quote requests.

Editor, Nomad Almanac

Igor compiles and maintains Nomad Almanac, researching every visa, tax, and residency claim from primary sources. Best fit for stories on how nomad visa programs actually function, how tax residency traps catch remote workers, and how relocation costs compare across countries. He speaks to method and to what the rules say, and points reporters to the official source behind any figure.
