030 Deskhop’s Global Workspace Revolution, CBI Passport Residency Update & New US Visa Bond Checks

In this milestone Episode 30 of the Global Expat Podcast, hosted by Global Expat CEO Mohamed Aboshanab, we welcome a very special guest — the CEO of Deskhop — to talk about the future of work without borders. Whether you are a digital nomad, a location-independent entrepreneur, or part of a distributed global team, finding a productive, reliable, and inspiring workspace can make all the difference in your professional life. Deskhop’s innovative platform is setting out to solve exactly that challenge.

We begin by exploring Deskhop’s core mission: enabling anyone, anywhere, to book a desk, meeting room, or collaborative workspace in just a few clicks. No matter if you’re in London for two days, Bali for a month, or Dubai for the winter, Deskhop connects you with high-quality work environments that meet your professional needs. The CEO shares how their platform integrates global listings, flexible booking options, and local partnerships to ensure users can work efficiently without the hassle of long-term contracts or restrictive memberships.

This conversation dives into the rise of “workspace-as-a-service” models and how they empower a new generation of workers who reject traditional office setups. We discuss trends in remote work, the increasing demand for on-demand professional environments, and how platforms like Deskhop are positioned to be as essential as travel booking sites for modern professionals.

But that’s just the first half of the episode. In true Global Expat style, we then pivot to essential updates that affect anyone navigating international mobility and immigration strategies. Mohamed provides a detailed breakdown of recent changes to Citizenship by Investment (CBI) programs, with a specific focus on the new requirement that applicants must spend a minimum of 30 days in the issuing island nation before their passport can be granted. This change marks a significant shift for investors and global citizens who previously enjoyed faster turnaround times, and we discuss how this could impact planning for both individuals and families seeking second citizenship.

Next, we move to US immigration updates, where Mohamed unpacks the new US visa bond system — a policy that requires certain applicants to post a refundable bond as part of their visa process. Now, applicants have the ability to check their bond status online, adding transparency but also introducing new steps to the application process. We cover what this means for short-term visitors, business travelers, and those seeking longer stays, as well as the broader implications for compliance and planning international travel.

Listeners will walk away with:

• A clear understanding of how Deskhop works and how it can simplify workspace access globally.

• Insight into the latest CBI program residency rules and how they may affect your second citizenship timeline.

• Knowledge of the US visa bond update and the new online status-checking process.

• Practical tips for combining remote work solutions with global residency and citizenship strategies to maximize freedom and flexibility.
