Can family and/or spouse accompany someone with a Digital Nomad visa for El Salvador?
Yes, Your Family Can Accompany You on El Salvador's Digital Nomad Visa
Good news! You can bring your immediate family members, including your spouse and children, when you apply for El Salvador's Digital Nomad Visa [2][4].
Key Requirements for Family Members
Higher Income Threshold: When you include dependents, you'll need to demonstrate a higher monthly income than the standard $1,460/month requirement for a single applicant [4][6]. The minimum income requirement increases to cover six months of expenses when you're accompanied by two or more people [5].
Required Documentation: Your family members will need to provide:
- Birth certificates (from government archives) [3]
- Marriage certificates for spousal dependencies [3][9]
- Valid passports for each family member [9]
- Clean criminal records [9]
- Certified translations and apostille certification for foreign documents [3]
Separate Applications: Your family members will need to apply for their own visa or residency permit alongside your application [2].
Important Considerations
- The visa is valid for 1 year and can be extended up to 4 years total [1]
- Processing time is approximately 45 days [1]
- You'll need valid health insurance coverage in El Salvador for your family [6]
- Some documents need to be apostilled in your last country of residence before arriving [7]
