The index assesses how remote income is taxed, tax-residency rules and digital-nomad visa frameworks.","He leads the research team at Liberty International and rebuilt the index’s methodology, which scores countries on how remote income is taxed, when tax residency is triggered, and whether a digital-nomad visa actually removes the exposure it appears to remove. The 2025 edition put Ecuador at the top. The scores are published with the reasoning behind them, so that a government can see precisely which rule cost it places.","He presented the index at the Free Cities Conference in Prague in 2025, on a panel unpacking what the year’s rankings say about where remote workers are actually going. The work matters to the movement because it measures the thing Free Cities projects promise in the abstract: how much practical difference a jurisdiction makes to someone who is free to choose one.",1788062488286]
