I am planning to go travelling extensively for the next few months. I am employed in a company that allows me to work remotely, I can do my job from any place that has an internet connection.   The countries I'm thinking of travelling to are those for which I would not require a visa, so I don't think "tourist visa" or "business visa" issues apply to me.   I have heard that there are countries which do not allow remote workers to work while they are in that country, but I'm having trouble finding out specifically which countries those are.   Can anyone give me more information regarding this or point to a place where I could get more information? If it helps, the countries I'm thinking of going to are Israel, Brazil, and Colombia.

I found several questions about inbound travelers to the US in this scenario, but little about other countries: I work for a company in my home country (USA) who are open to me working remotely while traveling.   Which countries allow me to legally work remotely for a company in my home country (USA) while traveling in their country? The work has absolutely no connection to the destination country, it would take place identically entirely within the USA if I weren't traveling.

I got a B1/B2 visa earlier this year when I traveled to the US for a business trip from my company. It expires in 2013 and I'd love to visit the United States again, but for no other purpose than traveling.  I wonder:        If I can legally travel to US with B1/B2 visa without a real business need (assuming I'm honest);   If I have to work at my current company to be able to use it.      I live in Russia.

There are countries in the Balkan area that allow entry if you have a Schengen visa but am not able find a definite list of all those countries. Knowing that will save me getting a visa for all those countries when I do my mega Euro trip.

Everything I've seen points to no (and I would love that to be true since applying for a visa online costs money) but I'm worried about getting refused due to the length of time I wish to stay, which is 6 months.  I went to university in the UK on a Tier 4 visa, but have never just been a tourist which is what I would like to do now. Since graduating, I have started working but am underwhelmed and would love to travel again. My original plan was Australia but now I would like to see the rest of the UK as well beforehand.  If I arrived with the following, would I be refused entry simply for not applying online?: an approved Australian work &amp; holiday visa, a mini itinerary, bank statements for the last 6 months.

I am Sri-Lankan staying in Bangladesh working in well established company in Bangladesh. I, my wife and two kids applied for Schengen visa from German embassy in Dhaka. I got only sponser letter from my paternal uncle in Germany. We submit all company letter, bank account, school letters, insurance, booking air tickets, etc.  Our visa refused and the reason given "your intention to leave the territory of the member states before the expiry of the visa could not be ascertained" so I want to know what it mean. And how I apply again fix by this reason? Our annual vacation starts on 15 July for one month. I applied visa for 15 days. We plan to stay 15 days in Germany and travel to Sri Lanka and back to Bangladesh.

Recently I found from  that a visa is not required to travel to Jamaica for an Indian citizen.   Does that mean I can travel directly to Jamaica with only my passport?  Can anyone clarify why a visa is not required for Indian citizens especially to some countries like Haiti, Nepal, Bhutan, Jamaica, Mauritius, and St. Kitts? Why are these countries allowing people without any visa?

I would like to know if there is a possibility for me to get  a tourist visa for Canada.   I have no invitation letter from anyone from Canada. I have travelled to the UK last year (July 2018) and I also visited Europe (Nov 2017).  Should I apply without having an invitation letter, or do I have to wait until I arrange invitation letter somehow?  If I should apply without having invitation letter then how much funds should I keep on my personal and current account?  I have an IT company here in India.

I live with my mom here in the Philippines. She owns a sari sari store and shes a pensioner. She pays me monthly. And I don't have a bank account as a proof of my financial status.My sister and her husband want me to visit them in the UK since she's going to have a baby and she really needs someone to be with her since my brother in law is working. My brother in law would like to sponsor my trip. What documents will I comply since I don't have a proof of employment?    And what to do to prove that I'm going to the Philippines after my visit for 6 months in the UK.   Surely, I have to return home since my 74 mom needs me. Will making a letter help to prove that I will go back home after my visit to the UK?

I was wondering if you have a concealed carry license (U.S.), would that license apply in other countries? Or would you be breaking the other countries' laws? I also know some countries have very strict gun laws, and do not allow guns in their country. Would they apply to me as a non-citizen?  I'd like to take a  (small, low caliber revolver) for personal protection to some of the more dangerous countries I want to visit.

I am planning to travel to Portugal to attend an academic conference and in that regard needed a short-stay Schengen visa. The visa application has a field "Purpose of Travel" with the following options:   - Business - Sports - Cultural - Other - Study - Visiting family or friends - Medical reasons - Official visit - Transit - Airport transit - Tourism   I am attending the conference to present the research I am conducting as a part of my PhD. So "Study" is the closest in my opinion. But I don't want the Embassy to misconstrue that it is for studying at a university in Portugal. In that case, would "Business" be the right option to choose?

I'd like to know whether the question in DS-160 form implies other country refusals as well? In 2009, I was refused and banned by UK for future applications for 10 years since they did not find my language requirement document genuine.   I have been currently working for a global company and thus need to travel to US with B1/B2 visa; however, I do not actually know what to answer for below question:  "Have you ever sought to obtain or assist others to obtain a visa, entry into the United States, or any other United States immigration benefit by fraud or willful misrepresentation or other unlawful means?"  Does that question related with my current situation? I sought advice from my company's own visa department, and they told me that related question is only for United States applications and thus need be answered as "No".   I would gladly answer “Yes” and explain my situation rather than misrepresent myself, but would like to get your advice about the situation as well as I am not comfortable giving unnecessary details if it is not mandatory.   Regards,  Update: As of 2019, I succesfully been granted a visa to US for my business travel. Answered the question "No" like suggested here if anyone's wondering. Please note that application been done after my ban for UK expired, though I am not sure if it is effected anything at all.

Some destinations have a "90/180 rule" which says you can come and go but you must not spend over 90 days out of any 180 days in the area.  concerns this rule.  At least Schengen and Turkey have this rule, probably depending on where the traveller is from and what kind of visa they apply for.  Maybe I'm a dummy but I've always had a lot of trouble trying to add up how many days I've spent in such places when I've entered and left several times over recent months.  Is there an easy way to do this I'm missing or is it difficult for everybody? I'm guessing something based on counting backwards from the end date might be the trick?  Maybe you know of an app or website that can do this for you.

There are certain countries which in order to be granted a visa you must submit your intended itinerary. My friend tells me that he thinks China is one of those countries.  What do independent travellers do? We're thinking of hitch-hiking across China without a precise plan. But if we have to submit an itinerary for the visa does then lock us in to a planned route after all?  Is it just bureaucracy where they make it look complicated but in practice it turns out to be easy?  (If it makes a difference we will have Australia or UK passports.)

What does "relocation offered" exactly mean? Is it about sponsoring visa/work permit? I have seen many positions indicating "relocation offered" but then mentioning that applicants must be [I guess already] eligible to live and work in that country.  I think it would be really helpful to be able to filter results based on sponsoring visa, like HN "Who is hiring?" posts. [It has also been .]

We're in the EU (EU passports) and planning on spending the next couple years traveling. Income is coming through a company I have set in a country I was never a resident of.  The only taxes I'm normally liable for is my personal income, at my place of residence.  During the travel period, we will not stay longer than 2-3 month in a specific country, therefore we don't establish tax residence in any of them.  In that situation, can I avoid paying income tax during that time?

We already have . (Actually it's unresolved with two possibly conflicting answers and no solid reference). And we have . (Currently on hold as a duplicate of the former but maybe it's different).   But what about for people who don't require a visa to enter the US but can visit on the Visa Waiver Program? Are such people allowed to job hunt in America?

I am an Indian national living in London. I need to travel to Israel for work. I will need to apply for a visa but I have been told that it will be stamped in my passport. I have read that Israel knows of the problems travellers face in other Arab countries so they issue a paper visa but the embassy in London told me that it will be stamped in. I travel often in Middle East for work and I do not want any issues in the future. Please advise.  Thanks.
