Question 1

How do I find out which countries I can move to?

Accepted Answer

Enter your monthly income, savings, or foreign heritage and the free finder matches them against the published figures for 154 current residency routes across 101 countries — digital-nomad, retirement/passive-income, investment ("golden") and citizenship-by-descent. It takes about two minutes and needs no account.

Question 2

Does a match mean I qualify for the visa?

Accepted Answer

No. A match means the income, savings, or heritage you entered meets a program's published figures — not that you are eligible. Each government decides eligibility, and rules and figures change often. This is information, not legal or immigration advice: verify every requirement at the official source, and a licensed advisor handles your actual application.

Question 3

Is the visa finder free?

Accepted Answer

Yes — free, with no account and no paywall. expatriates.ai never files anything with any government on your behalf and does not sell your data.

Question 4

What kinds of visa routes does it cover?

Accepted Answer

Four route types: digital nomad, retirement, investment, ancestry. Programs that have closed or been struck down are excluded, so the finder never returns a route that no longer exists.

Question 5

Where do the visa requirements come from?

Accepted Answer

Every requirement links the official government source that publishes it. The dataset was last verified end-to-end against those sources in July 2026. Figures are USD equivalents and drift with exchange rates and annual resets, so the official source is always the authority.
