Nomad insurance
Digital nomad insurance for Cabo Verde
Built for people who stay in Cabo Verde for months at a time but aren't relocating. Hybrid medical + travel + gear cover, written for the way nomads actually live.
Cabo Verde runs a Remote Working Program that lets you live on the islands for six months, renewable once, and unusually it spells out the insurance rule: you must hold travel and health cover that includes medical evacuation and repatriation. That rule exists for a reason. On an Atlantic archipelago where serious cases are flown to Europe and two islands have no working airport at all, evacuation cover is the part that actually matters.
