Common Questions

What is the minimum investment?
There is no fixed dollar minimum, but the investment must be substantial enough to sustain the business plan (typically $30k-100k USD+).
Can I buy a house to get residency?
No, simple residential property purchase is considered passive and does not qualify for the Investor Visa.
Does this lead to citizenship?
Yes, you can apply for citizenship after 2 years of residency.
Can I bring my family?
Yes, dependents can be included in the investor application.
How long does approval take?
The business plan review adds time; expect 3-6 months for the full process.
