They don't allow you to perform work within the jurisdiction. But no one cares if you're working remotely, and I'm not aware of any tourism visas that preclude it.
Digital nomad visas are not about legalizing an otherwise-illegal arrangement, they are intended to expand and promote it with longer visa terms that traditional tourism visas allow. It's about increasing the length of the visa, not legalizing it. But neither a tourism visa, or a digital nomad visa allow you to work in the jurisdiction.

Working in the jurisdiction is working in the jurisdiction no matter where the person paying you or your usual place of work (if such thing even exists) is. If you are in the jurisdiction, doing labor for pay (regardless of where the pay comes from), you are working in the jurisdiction.
- digianarchist 4y agoExactly. OP isn't seeing rules that preclude it because most jurisdictions don't distinguish between remote work and work.
- belter 4y agoThey don't care as long as this does not become the norm. If you look at some of the references I provided, they explicit state the type of activities you are allowed to do.
- the_svd_doctor 4y agoJust because no one cares does not mean it's allowed. Try going through the US border on a B1 (tourist) VISA (or visa-exempt) and mentioning that you're staying 90 days to work for your <other country> company. I doubt that will work.
