About this calculator

This page gives general information only. It is not legal, tax, immigration or financial advice.

The budgets and visa figures come from the research behind the DeyaSoft World Tours videos, on the dates shown for each destination. Prices, exchange rates and visa rules change, and consulates apply rules differently. Sources are listed for each destination. Before you apply for a visa or sign a lease, verify every requirement on the official government or consulate site and get advice for your own situation.

"Not covered yet" means the video did not give that figure. You can type your own amount. Lines marked "included" are already counted inside another line, so they are not added twice. When a video gave only a range, the field starts at the higher figure, and the note says so.

Budgets are for one person. Visa thresholds shown are for a single main applicant; spouses and dependants usually add to them (see the note under each result). The visa check compares your total income before tax.
