"Left before tax" is your income minus the capital's rent for a 60 m² flat and the transport pass, utilities, internet and mobile plan. Tax depends on where you become resident and is not deducted.
How it is worked out, and the sources
The thresholds are the income each official route asks applicants to prove, as listed in the report Digital-nomad and remote-work visa income requirements, in the currency and period the authority publishes. A yearly amount is divided by 12; other currencies are compared through euros at the ECB monthly average (2026-08). Meeting a threshold is one condition of an application, not an approval: each route has others (health insurance, a clean record, the type of work), listed on its page. Capital costs are the figures of the capital's own page, where every line carries its source and date. Methodology.
