Residency permits in exchange for investment — property, government bonds, or business capital. Golden visas grant the right to live, work, and often travel freely within a region (like the EU Schengen area), with a path to permanent residency and eventually citizenship.
Unlike CBI programmes that grant immediate citizenship, golden visas provide a residency permit with eventual pathways to permanent residency and citizenship. Most require maintaining the investment for 5-10 years. EU golden visas typically grant Schengen travel rights immediately.
Market changes: Portugal ended its golden visa for real estate in major cities. Spain announced plans to end its programme. Greece raised minimum investment to EUR 800,000 in prime areas. Ireland closed its programme entirely. Always verify current requirements.
