Many people come to Nicaragua as tourists, fall in Iove with the area and manage to find a job, even without a work permit.  However, it is illegal to work without a work permit in Nicaragua.  And, to get a work permit, you need to be a legal resident of Nicaragua.
 
In the initial stages, here’s how it works: you can get a visa for 30 days and get it extended for up to 3 months.  Then, after your stay for 3 months is complete, you need to leave the country...
