Commonly referred to as golden visas or investor visas, these programmes are especially popular with investors not wishing to emigrate and move their family, but require flexibility should they ever need to reside.

It is possible to gain a residency visa through investment in several countries across Europe. Portugal, Spain and Greece all offer golden visa residency programmes, granting applicants and their families residence permits following a qualifying real estate investment. Other countries such as Malta require government donations in return for residency.
Asides from the main investment, each country has its own application requirements that investors must comply with. Our experienced team of experts will be able to guide you through the process and advise on which documents are required.
By investing in a second residency programme, investors are able to broaden their travel access and widen their economic and business opportunities. A second residency permit for many also offers the security of a ”Plan B” should they ever need to leave their country.
Some countries such as Portugal and Greece allow investment into qualifying real estate projects in return for residency. See below a selection of the best options on offer.
