What to know before you apply

montserratremoteworker.com is the Government of Montserrat's dedicated programme portal and visitmontserrat.com is the Montserrat Tourism Authority; both are treated as official and agree on every figure. The Government of Montserrat's own site (gov.ms) could not be fetched — its TLS certificate chain failed verification — so the original January 2021 launch notice could not be re-read; no closure or suspension notice was found anywhere. Note the programme site's own warning that the USD$70,000 income threshold is being revised downwards, so this figure may be stale. No official statement on tax treatment was found.

What it means for your tax days

A visa is permission to stay; tax residency follows the days you actually spend. Check Montserrat's tax authority for the day test that applies to you — and count the days either way.
