    Golden Visa — FAQ

    A Golden Visa is a residency-by-investment program that grants non-EU nationals a residence permit through a qualifying investment. It typically provides Schengen Area access and a pathway to permanent residency or citizenship.

    Golden Visa programs grant residency, while CBI programs grant full citizenship and a passport. Golden Visas offer a more gradual path with eventual citizenship eligibility after several years of residency.

    Greece offers the lowest entry point at €250,000 for real estate investment. Portugal requires €500,000 for fund subscriptions. Latvia, Hungary, and Bulgaria have varying thresholds.

    Most Golden Visa programs have minimal stay requirements. Portugal requires just 7 days in the first year. Greece has no minimum stay for maintaining residency.
