Benefits of remote work and living in Montenegro

If you work remotely and all you need is the Internet, but you can’t decide on the choice of the country you would like to move to. Read the experience of our friends who have already moved to Montenegro and talk about the advantages in comparison with other countries.

1 Climate

The first and most important advantage is the temperate climate. Compared to tropical or Arab countries, it is comfortable to work here almost all months of the year, with the exception of the summer period June-August, but air conditioners do an excellent job of cooling the premises. The air temperature in the hottest period reaches 40 degrees Celsius, the sea temperature is 20 degrees. The weather in winter is more rainy, but you can go north and ski if you get melancholy. The only negative here is the lack of centralized heating, but often houses have underfloor heating and heaters installed.

2 Security

The country is in the top safe, there are already video surveillance everywhere, and the police are always on guard.

3 Easy and quick to apply for a residence permit

You become a resident through the opening of an individual entrepreneur or LLC and do not suffer from traveling abroad to put the coveted stamps in your passport about crossing the border, every month or half a year, as, for example, in Thailand. The opening costs will pay off in a couple of months if you calculate how much you would spend on visaran. At GoMonte, you can study a detailed list of documents and the cost of services for legalization in Montenegro in the Residence Permit section. Citizenship can also be obtained, these are investment programs, but in 2022 they are temporarily suspended.

4 Availability of convenient co-working spaces and good internet speed

You can read about how to find a temporary or permanent space to work in our article Pros and cons of coworking spaces. The cost of the workplace is from 10 euros per day, which includes the use of the necessary equipment, water, tea, coffee and, of course, the Internet.

The speed of providers depends on the season and location. The closer to the capital Podgorica, the better it is. On the coast in the summer, you can sometimes notice slow work, which depends on the time of day, most often in the evening, when tourists return to their apartments from excursions.

From 11 euros for 50 Gb

from 20 euros for 600 Gb,

from 30 euros for 800 Gb

7 Ability to visit neighboring countries without a visa and cheap air tickets

Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Albania are countries that do not require visas and you can enter there if you have a residence permit or even if you do not.

Also in all cities there is food delivery from restaurants and cafes to your home.
