Cayman Islands · Digital nomad
Global Citizen Concierge Programme
Closed to new applicants. It launched in October 2020 as one of the first Caribbean remote-work visas, offering up to two years' residence for remote workers with a USD 100,000 minimum income. It was also the first digital nomad visa in the world to shut down. Cayman now expects long-stay remote workers to use the standard residency certificates instead.
We list it because aggregator sites still market it to farm traffic, and clients still ask about it. It is dead. The lesson holds more broadly. Pandemic-era Caribbean remote-work visas were tourism-recovery tools, not migration policy, and several have quietly lapsed since.
Qualifying routes
