What It Costs to Arrive

The cash needed to ARRIVE somewhere, as opposed to what a month costs once you live there: the entry fee for a given passport, the first month's rent, the deposit, and a long-stay visa fee where one has been verified against the issuing government. READ complete BEFORE totalUsd. Rent covers a subset of the country spine and most visa fees could not be verified, so the total is a FLOOR whenever complete is false, and missing names every component that could not be priced. The total can legitimately be 0 - visa-free entry into a country with no rent figure sums to nothing known - which is honest arithmetic and a false headline. depositMonths is a STATED ASSUMPTION, not a measurement: no free global dataset of deposit norms exists. The entry route itself is derived exactly from passport mobility data, so 'for this passport, this destination is visa-free' is always answered even when no fee is.
Input schema
| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| passport | string | yes | ISO alpha-2 of the traveller's passport, e.g. 'US'. Determines the entry route and therefore the fee. |
| destination | string | yes | ISO alpha-2 of the destination. Must be in the PPP country registry; some countries with a verified nomad-visa fee (e.g. BB) are not and appear only in find_nomad_visas. |
| depositMonths | number | no | Months of rent held as a deposit. Defaults to the site's stated assumption of 1; override it if you know the market. |
| income | number | no | Monthly remote income in USD. Optional; enables housing's income-relative view but is not needed for the arrival total. |
