A temporary residence permit for financially independent foreigners can be obtained without investment, it is enough that you have an independent source of income in your country or other countries of the world, without plans to work in the country of immigration, but only to live there. A temporary residence permit is suitable for well-off foreigners who have a stable source of income. The size of the minimum income varies from country to country, but there are general similarities in this category. For example, the following factors are taken into account when deciding to issue a RP to a foreigner: availability of housing for living in the chosen country (it can be a purchase or a long-term lease); a bank account with a certain amount; applicant’s good standing - no criminal record and no immigration violations.
The programs have a wide selection of investment options - real estate (commercial and residential), business, company shares, startups, securities, investment funds, bank deposits, etc. A distinctive feature of Golden Visa RP programs is that you do not need to move abroad and stay there permanently after making an investment. You and your family will be able to maintain and continue resident status living in your primary country. For comparison, under the Financially Independent. Foreigners program, you must permanently (183 days) live abroad. Another reason why many people choose the path of obtaining RP through Golden Visas is that the investor can bring the whole family at once. Moreover, the most important thing is that the application is submitted simultaneously for the main applicant and their family.
