🇱🇻 Latvia

Long-stay Visa for Remote Work

Source verified

A one-year visa for qualifying employees or self-employed people connected to an OECD member country who work remotely from Latvia.

Applicants must establish the required OECD-country connection, at least six months of qualifying prior work, health insurance, and accommodation; local employment is not permitted. The newest OCMA publication states €4,538; an older official page still shows €4,213, so RouteFound applies the newer, stricter figure.

Eligibility facts reviewed against Latvia Office of Citizenship and Migration Affairs on 2026-08-16.
