Living in the same place, doing the same things, day in and day out? Do you ever dream of moving to a different country, experiencing a new culture, learning a new language, and enjoying a better quality of life?
But then you think about the costs, the paperwork, the hassle, and the uncertainty of relocating to a foreign land. And you wonder if it’s worth it, or even possible, to make such a big move. Well, what if I told you that there are some countries in the world that will actually pay
You to live there? Yes, you heard me right. There are some places that are so eager to attract new residents, that they offer incentives, subsidies, and even cash to entice you to move there. Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, it’s not. In this video, I’m going to show
You the top 5 countries that will pay you to live there, and how you can take advantage of these amazing opportunities. And make sure you stick around till the end, because I have a BONUS country that you won’t want to miss. So, without further ado, let’s get started. Number 5: Chile.
The first country on our list is Chile, the long and narrow country that stretches along the western coast of South America. Chile is known for its diverse landscapes, from the driest desert in the world in the north, to the glaciers and fjords in the south,
To the Andes mountains and the Pacific Ocean along its borders. Chile is also a stable and prosperous country, with a high standard of living, a strong economy, and a vibrant culture. But despite its many attractions, Chile faces a challenge of attracting and retaining talent, especially in
The fields of science, technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship. That’s why the Chilean government created a program called Start-Up Chile, which offers grants of up to $40,000 USD to entrepreneurs from all over the world who want to start or grow their businesses in Chile. The program also provides visa assistance, mentoring,
Networking, and access to a coworking space in Santiago, the capital city. To apply for Start-Up Chile, you need to have a business idea that is innovative, scalable, and has a global impact. You also need to commit to living in Chile for at least six months,
And to participate in the program’s activities and events. You can apply as an individual or as a team, and you can choose from three different stages of funding, depending on the maturity of your project. Start-Up Chile is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to launch or expand their
Business in a dynamic and supportive environment, while also enjoying the benefits of living in a beautiful and diverse country. If you’re interested, you can check out their website for more information and deadlines. Number 4: Thailand. The next country on our list is Thailand,
The tropical paradise in Southeast Asia that attracts millions of tourists every year with its stunning beaches, lush jungles, ancient temples, and delicious cuisine. Thailand is also a popular destination for expats, who enjoy the low cost of living, the friendly people, the rich culture, and the warm weather. But living in Thailand is
Not always easy, especially if you want to work there legally. The visa and work permit requirements are strict and complicated, and the job opportunities are limited and competitive. That’s why the Thai government launched a program called SMART Visa, which stands for Smart, Talent,
And Expert Visa. This program is designed to attract highly skilled professionals, investors, executives, and startups in the fields of science, technology, and innovation, and to make it easier for them to live and work in Thailand. The SMART Visa offers several benefits, such as a visa validity of up to four years,
No work permit requirement, no 90-day reporting, and the ability to bring your spouse and children with you. You also get access to a one-stop service center, where you can get assistance with immigration, taxation, banking, and other matters. To qualify for the SMART Visa, you need to meet certain criteria,
Depending on the category you apply for. For example, if you apply as a professional, you need to have a bachelor’s degree or higher, at least 10 years of work experience, and a monthly salary of at least $2,500 USD. If you apply as a startup, you need to have a business plan,
A minimum capital of $60,000 USD, and a recommendation from a relevant agency. The SMART Visa is a great option for anyone who wants to live and work in Thailand, and to contribute to the country’s development and innovation. If you’re interested, you can check out their website for more information and application process.
Number 3: Canada. The third country on our list is Canada, the second-largest country in the world by area, and one of the most diverse and multicultural countries in the world. Canada is known for its natural beauty, its high quality of life, its universal health care, and its friendly and polite people.
Canada is also a country that welcomes immigrants, and that recognizes the value and potential of newcomers. That’s why the Canadian government has several programs and initiatives to attract and support immigrants, especially those who want to live in rural and northern areas,
Where the population is aging and declining, and where the labor and skills shortages are acute. One of these programs is the Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot, which is a community-driven program that allows small and remote communities in Canada to select and recruit immigrants who
Meet their economic and social needs. The program also helps immigrants to settle and integrate into their new communities, and to access local services and resources. To participate in the Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot, you need to have a job offer from an employer in one of the participating communities,
And you need to meet the federal eligibility criteria, such as language proficiency, education level, and work experience. You also need to demonstrate your intention and ability to live in the community, and to contribute to its development and growth. The Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot is a great opportunity for anyone who
Wants to live in Canada, and to experience a different and authentic side of the country, away from the big cities and the crowds. If you’re interested, you can check out their website for more information and list of communities. Number 2: Italy.
The second country on our list is Italy, the boot-shaped country in Southern Europe that is famous for its art, architecture, history, fashion, and cuisine. Italy is a country that has something for everyone, from the majestic Alps in the north, to the sunny Mediterranean
Coast in the south, to the romantic canals of Venice, to the ancient ruins of Rome. Italy is also a country that is facing some challenges, such as a low birth rate, an aging population, a sluggish economy, and a high unemployment rate. That’s why
Some towns and villages in Italy are trying to revive and repopulate their areas by offering incentives to attract new residents, especially young and foreign ones. One of these incentives is the 1 euro house scheme, which is exactly what it sounds like. Some
Municipalities in Italy are selling abandoned and dilapidated houses for just 1 euro, or about $1.20 USD, to anyone who is willing to buy and renovate them. The idea is to restore and revitalize these historic and charming properties, and to bring new life and energy to these communities.
To take advantage of the 1 euro house scheme, you need to contact the municipality that is offering the deal, and to submit an application and a renovation plan. You also need to pay a deposit, which is refundable once the renovation is completed,
And to agree to finish the work within a certain timeframe, usually between two and four years. The 1 euro house scheme is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to own a piece of Italy, and to live in a picturesque and peaceful location, surrounded by nature and culture.
If you’re interested, you can check out their website for more information and list of towns. Number 1: Switzerland. And the number one country on our list is Switzerland, the landlocked country in Central Europe that is renowned for its mountains, lakes, chocolate, cheese, watches, and banks. Switzerland
Is also one of the wealthiest, happiest, and most innovative countries in the world, with a high standard of living, a strong democracy, and a neutral and peaceful foreign policy. Switzerland is also a country that values its local and direct democracy, and that allows
Its citizens to have a say in the decisions that affect them. That’s why some cantons and municipalities in Switzerland have a system of voting and paying taxes by referendum, which means that the people can decide how much tax they want to pay, and how they want to spend it.
One of these cantons is Glarus, which is located in the east of Switzerland, and which has a population of about 40,000 people. Glarus is known for its scenic landscapes, its cheese production, and its annual open-air assembly, where the citizens gather in a public square to vote on various issues by raising their hands.
One of the issues that Glarus voted on in 2016 was to offer a tax incentive to attract new residents, especially young families, to the canton. The incentive consists of a tax deduction of up to 50,000 Swiss francs, or about $55,000 USD, per year, for the first 10 years of living in Glarus.
The deduction applies to anyone who moves to Glarus from from another country or another canton, and who has an income of at least 100,000 Swiss francs, or about $110,000 USD, per year. The tax incentive is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to live in Switzerland,
And to enjoy the benefits of living in a democratic, prosperous, and beautiful country, while also saving some money on taxes. If you’re interested, you can check out their website for more information and application process. BONUS: Japan. And now, as promised, here is the BONUS country that will pay you to live there:
Japan. Japan is the island nation in East Asia that is famous for its culture, technology, anime, sushi, and cherry blossoms. Japan is also a country that is facing a serious demographic crisis, with a shrinking and aging population, and a low birth rate.
That’s why some prefectures and towns in Japan are offering incentives to attract new residents, especially young and foreign ones, to revitalize their areas and to preserve their traditions and heritage. Some of these incentives include cash payments, housing subsidies, free education, and even free cows.
One of these prefectures is Niigata, which is located in the northwest of Japan, and which has a population of about 2.2 million people. Niigata is known for its rice production, its snow festivals, and its hot springs. Niigata is also one of the prefectures that participates
In the Furusato Nozei program, which is a system that allows taxpayers to donate part of their income tax to a rural area of their choice, and to receive local products and services in return. One of the products that Niigata offers to its donors is a cow,
Which is valued at about $4,500 USD. The cow is not only a source of meat and milk, but also a symbol of gratitude and friendship. The donors can choose to keep the cow, or to donate it to a
Local farmer or a school. The cow also comes with a certificate of ownership, a photo, and a name. The Furusato Nozei program is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to support and connect with a rural area in Japan, and to receive a unique and generous gift in return. If you’re interested,
