golden visa program

A golden visa program allows individuals to gain residency in a country by making a significant investment, such as purchasing property, investing in local businesses, or contributing to the economy. This process provides a pathway to legal residence, and often citizenship, without the need for traditional work or family sponsorship routes. Countries implement these programs to attract foreign investment, stimulate economic growth, and promote tourism. Eligibility criteria, investment amounts, and benefits vary by country, but generally, they offer investors and their families long-term residency, sometimes with options for citizenship after meeting certain residence requirements.
