If you are on a Digital Nomad Visa do you ignore the 183 days rule? (alien.top)

I'm currently paying taxes in my home country (UK) since I have a regular job with a UK company. I live in Estonia with a DNV (and most likely plan on staying the full year).

Technically, if I stay more than 6 months I need to pay taxes here, however, they seem to make it quite complicated and expensive, given my employer doesn't have an entity here.

This just got me thinking whether you guys in a similar situation just ignore this and assume nobody will say anything, or do you do everything by the book? Or do you make sure you don't stay more than 183 days?

Your first mistake is paying taxes in the UK when you don’t live there. UK is a territorial tax country. It sounds like you need to hire an accountant in both countries. Don’t try to figure this stuff out for yourself, you will just end up paying more. I have some expérience dealing with HMRC snd they are very difficult to deal with.
