Overview

โ€บ

A premier European nomad destination due to its 10% flat tax and the world-famous nomad hub in Bansko. It offers some of the fastest and cheapest internet in the world, coupled with a very low cost of living. The capital, Sofia, is a vibrant city with a growing startup scene, while Bansko has become a global hub for nomads seeking a community in the mountains. While corruption and infrastructure outside major cities remain challenges, the overall value for money and the thriving nomad community make it one of the top destinations in Europe for remote workers.
