The Dream Visa Calculator
Your Gateway to Global Mobility

What Is the Dream Visa Calculator?

Imagine this: You want to move to another country. You have a dream maybe it's living by the beach in Portugal, working remotely from vibrant Warsaw, or building a business in Barcelona.


But first, you need to answer one critical question: Which visa do I qualify for?

Right now, finding that answer takes 40+ hours of research. You read blog posts from 2019. You ask ChatGPT which gives you generic answers. You scroll Facebook groups where everyone's guessing. You're confused, overwhelmed, and not sure if you're even looking at the right visa.


The Dream Visa Calculator changes everything.

Answer 7 simple questions. Takes 2 minutes.

Our AI analyzes 200+ factors about your specific situation—your nationality, income, family status, profession, goals and tells you exactly which 3 visas you qualify for right now.


You receive an instant Dream Email with:

  • ✅ Which visas match your profile
  • ✅ Transparent costs (no surprises)
  • ✅ Timeline and requirements
  • ✅ Step-by-step guidance
  • ✅ Next actions you can take today

From 40 hours of confusion → 2 minutes of clarity.

That's the promise. That's what we built.


Why This Matters: The Door, Not the Destination

But here's what most people don't understand:

The calculator isn't the product. It's the door.

Think about it: When you use Google Flights to find a ticket, Google doesn't fly the plane. When you use Booking.com to find a hotel, Booking doesn't own the hotels.

They connect you to the right solution.

That's exactly what the Dream Visa Calculator does but for your entire relocation journey.

The calculator is Phase 1 of a three-phase vision:

Phase 2: Verified Partner Network (2026)

Once you know which visa fits you, what's next?


You need help actually getting it.

That's where our verified partner network comes in.

Starting in 2026, when you use the Dream Visa Calculator, you won't just get information you'll get direct access to trusted local immigration experts in each country.


How it works:

You get matched to your top 3 visas → You choose which one you want → We connect you with a verified local partnerwho specializes in that exact visa type.


Why this matters:

Right now, if you want to move to Portugal, you Google "immigration lawyer Portugal" and hope you find someone good. You have no idea if they're experienced, if their prices are fair, if they actually know what they're doing.


With DreamLife's verified network:

  • ✅ Every partner is pre-vetted
  • ✅ Transparent pricing (no hidden fees)
  • ✅ Ratings and reviews from real clients
  • ✅ Specialists for each visa type
  • ✅ Real-time availability

Maria Santos | Immigration Lawyer | Lisbon, Portugal

  • Specialization: Digital Nomad Visas
  • Experience: 150+ successful applications
  • Success rate: 96%
  • Rating: 4.9/5 (87 reviews)

You book directly. They handle everything. We ensure quality.

This is how we scale globally without needing our own lawyers in every country. We build the technology. They deliver the service. Win-win-win.


Phase 3: The Full Marketplace (2027+)

But we're not stopping at visas.

Because here's the reality: Getting the visa is just the first step.


Once you arrive in your new country, you need:

  • 🏠 Housing
  • 🏦 Banking
  • 📋 Insurance
  • 🏫 Schools (if you have kids)
  • 📱 Phone plans
  • 🚗 Transportation
  • 🏥 Healthcare registration
  • 💼 Coworking spaces
  • 👥 Local community

Right now, you figure all of this out yourself.

You land in Lisbon or Warsaw, and you're googling "how to open a bank account in Portugal" or "best schools in Warsaw for expat kids."


Phase 3 transforms DreamLife into a full relocation marketplace.

Think of it like this:

Before: Booking.com just listed hotels

Now: Booking.com offers hotels, flights, car rentals, activities, restaurant reservations everything you need to travel

Before: DreamLife just matches you to visas Future: DreamLife offers visas, housing, banking, insurance, schools everything you need to relocate

One platform. Your entire relocation journey.


The Game-Changer: Cross-Country Comparison

Here's where it gets really exciting.

Right now (Phase 1):

  • You choose Spain → Calculator shows you the top 3 visas in Spain
  • You choose Portugal → Calculator shows you the top 3 visas in Portugal
  • You choose Poland → Calculator shows you the top 3 visas in Poland

The future (Phase 3):

You don't choose a country first. You tell us your situation your income, your goals, your timeline and we tell you which country + visa combination is best for you.

Example:


Your profile:

  • Nationality: Brazilian
  • Income: €3,000/month (remote work)
  • Goal: Live in Europe 1-2 years
  • Timeline: Want to move in 3 months
  • Budget: €5,000 for relocation

Old way (what everyone does now): You pick Spain because you like Barcelona. You research Spanish visas. You apply. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't.

New way (DreamLife 2027):


You enter your profile → Our AI analyzes every visa in every country we cover → You get a ranked list:


🥇 Best Match: Digital Nomad Visa → Portugal

  • Why: Fastest processing (2 months), lowest cost (€1,800 total), 95% approval rate for your profile
  • You'd pay: €650 gov fees + €1,200 legal support
  • Timeline: Apply in December, approved by February
  • Living costs: €1,500/month in Lisbon

🥈 Second Best: Freelance Visa → Poland

  • Why: Also fast (3 months), very affordable (€1,400 total), strong approval rate
  • You'd pay: €400 gov fees + €1,000 legal support
  • Timeline: Apply in December, approved by March
  • Living costs: €1,200/month in Warsaw

🥉 Third Best: Digital Nomad Visa → Spain

  • Why: Great option but slower (4 months) and pricier (€2,500 total)
  • You'd pay: €800 gov fees + €1,700 legal support
  • Timeline: Apply in December, approved by April
  • Living costs: €1,800/month in Barcelona

Suddenly, you're not just choosing a visa. You're choosing the optimal path to your dream life.

Maybe you didn't even consider Portugal but now you see it's faster, cheaper, and perfectly fits your profile.

This is the future of relocation: data-driven, personalized, optimized.


How We're Different: Real Data, Not Scraped Content

You might be thinking: "Can't I just ask ChatGPT which visa I need?"

Sure. But ChatGPT is trained on generic blog posts and government websites.

It doesn't know:

  • ❌ Your specific profile
  • ❌ Real-world approval rates
  • ❌ Which requirements actually matter
  • ❌ What consulates are really looking for
  • ❌ Hidden issues that cause rejections

The Dream Visa Calculator is trained on 1,600+ real cases.

For three years, Alina personally processed:

  • Digital nomad visas
  • Student visas
  • Startup visas
  • Family reunification visas
  • Self-employed visas
  • Golden visas
  • Retirement visas

She knows exactly what works and what doesn't. She's seen every rejection reason. She's navigated every bureaucratic nightmare.


That knowledge is built into the AI.

So when the calculator says "You have a 95% chance of approval for this visa" that's not a guess. That's based on hundreds of similar profiles we've successfully processed.

Why We're Adding Countries Strategically

We launched with Spain (our home base where we have 3 years of experience).

We just added Portugal and Poland.


Why these countries?

  1. High demand: These are top destinations for digital nomads and remote workers
  2. Digital-friendly: All three countries have modernized visa processes (you can apply online)
  3. Growing ecosystems: Strong expat communities, English-friendly, affordable
  4. Visa diversity: Each country offers different visa types for different profiles

Next up (2026): Ireland, Germany, France

Eventually: 50+ countries

But we're not just adding countries randomly. Each new country means:

✅ Verified local partners onboarded

✅ AI trained on that country's visa system

✅ Real-time updates on immigration changes

✅ Trusted lawyers and consultants vetted

✅ Success data tracked and analyzed

Quality over speed. We'd rather do 5 countries exceptionally well than 20 countries poorly.

What Makes a Great Visa Match?


Our AI doesn't just look at "Do you qualify?" It optimizes for your priorities:

🎯 Speed: Need to move fast? We prioritize visas with shortest processing times

💰 Cost: On a tight budget? We show you the most affordable paths

Approval rate: Risk-averse? We highlight visas with highest success rates for your profile

🔄 Flexibility: Want options to extend or switch? We explain long-term pathways

👨‍👩‍👧 Family: Bringing family? We factor in dependent visa requirements


The calculator understands trade-offs:

Maybe the Digital Nomad visa is fastest but costs more. Maybe the Student visa is cheapest but requires enrollment in a school. Maybe the Startup visa takes longer but gives you more long-term flexibility.

We show you all three options. You choose what matters most to you.


Real Results: What Users Are Saying

"I spent 3 weeks researching Spanish visas and was more confused than when I started. Used DreamLife calculator—got my answer in 2 minutes. Mind blown." — Carlos, Mexico → Spain


"I didn't even know I qualified for Portugal's Digital Nomad visa. The calculator showed me it was actually easier and cheaper than Spain. Changed my entire plan." — Sarah, USA → Portugal


"As a Brazilian, I thought my only option was a student visa. The calculator showed me I qualified for two other visas I'd never heard of. Saved me so much time and money." — Ana, Brazil → Poland


Why Now? The Perfect Storm

Three massive trends are making this the perfect moment for DreamLife:

1. Remote Work Explosion

  • 40M+ digital nomads globally (up from 7M in 2019)
  • 74% of companies now offer remote work
  • For the first time in history, millions of people can choose WHERE they live

2. Government Digitalization

  • Countries are competing for remote workers
  • New visa types being created (Digital Nomad visas didn't exist 5 years ago)
  • Application processes moving online
  • Governments want this to be easier

3. Information Overload

  • Too much content, not enough clarity
  • AI tools give generic answers
  • People need personalized guidance, not more blog posts
  • The solution isn't more information—it's better matching

DreamLife sits at the intersection of all three trends.
