European Residency by Investment
European programs grant resident status: the right to live in the country, travel across the Schengen area and, in time, apply for permanent status. Citizenship here is a separate long route through naturalisation, not a consequence of the investment. Below are the countries we work with.
What the programs have in common
- The outcome is resident status (temporary or permanent), not a passport
- The status must be maintained: renewals, keeping the investment and, in some countries, presence
- The path to citizenship runs through naturalisation and takes years of lawful residence
- Relocating does not move tax residency automatically — that is a separate question
