Price: the cost varies for each programme.

Advantages

the opportunity to invest in promising projects;

the provision of a range of tax incentives for businesses;

Once an entrepreneur has obtained citizenship or a residence permit, they enjoy all the benefits afforded to citizens of the country in which they become a resident.

How should one choose a country for obtaining second citizenship?

First, the applicant must identify their ultimate goal or that of their business activities. Based on this goal, they should seek a path to achieving it. Next, they should select a jurisdiction and a programme. Investment citizenship and residence permits are tools.

Requirements

1

One of the main requirements is to invest a certain amount in the country’s economy. This may involve purchasing property, investing in government bonds, local businesses or funds.
2

Investments must be held for a specified period, which usually ranges from 3 to 7 years.
3

Applicants must have a clean record and no criminal convictions.

4

Applicants are required to demonstrate that their funds are of lawful origin. This is one of the most important requirements in the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing (AML/CFT).
5

Countries often require applicants to demonstrate that they have sufficient financial resources to live in the country after immigration without needing to work.

Can I include my family members in the business immigration programme? What are the requirements for this?

Yes, many investment programmes allow for the inclusion of family members – spouses and children (usually up to the age of 18, or up to 25 if they are dependants). The conditions vary depending on the country: in some cases, an additional fee is required for each accompanying family member, whilst in others, only proof of financial support for the whole family is needed. We help you take these nuances into account when selecting a suitable programme.

How much do business immigration services cost?

The cost of our services depends on the chosen country, the type of programme (investment, business start-up, property purchase, etc.) and the client’s individual objectives. The exact amount is calculated following an initial consultation. We offer comprehensive support at every stage — from preparing documents to obtaining a residence permit or citizenship. Please contact us for a personalised quote and to select the most suitable programme.

What taxes will I have to pay after obtaining a residence permit or citizenship in another country?

The tax burden can vary significantly depending on the jurisdiction chosen. Some countries offer tax relief or exemptions on foreign income, whilst others may tax worldwide income. Before submitting your application, we will carefully analyse your tax situation and advise you on which countries are most advantageous from this perspective.

Cases:

CASE: How to recover frozen $600,000

The client faced a problem with frozen funds in the account of his international company. The bank where the account was held was in the process of liquidation and froze all funds while starting an audit of its clients.

CASE: Forgotten $400,000

Our client decided to completely liquidate his company, established about 10 years ago in Latvia. During the liquidation process and communication with the bank, we discovered that the client had $400,000 in the account for several years — money everyone had forgotten about.
