Residence by investment

Your Path to Global Residency

Residence by Investment (RBI) programs, also known as Golden Visa initiatives, offer a unique opportunity for high-net-worth individuals to secure residency rights in their preferred countries. These programs provide the freedom to live, work, study, and access top-notch healthcare in desirable destinations.
In today’s globalized world, having the flexibility to relocate or maintain multiple residences is crucial for affluent individuals. At Apollo IMA, we specialize in providing expert guidance on RBI programs in premier global locations, renowned for their business-friendly climate, exceptional quality of life, and pathways to citizenship. Below, we highlight the most reputable and effective RBI programs, carefully endorsed by Apollo IMA.

Understanding Temporary and Permanent Residence

Temporary residence refers to a limited-time status granted to foreign citizens through a visa or temporary residence permit. This status enables individuals to legally live, work, study, or conduct business in a country without holding full citizenship. Residence by Investment (RBI) programs offer a popular pathway to obtaining temporary and permanent residence by investing in the host country.

Temporary Residence Permit

A temporary residence permit is typically issued for 1-2 years and can be renewed annually or biennially. This permit allows foreign investors to reside in the country for a limited time, usually with the option to renew.

Permanent Residence Permit

After residing in the country for a specified period (usually around 5 years), foreign investors can apply for a permanent residence permit, provided they meet additional criteria. Permanent residence grants nearly the same rights as citizenship, enabling residents to:
  • Live indefinitely without time restrictions
  • Work without needing a separate work permit
  • Study at local institutions
  • Enjoy increased freedom and flexibility
Permanent residence offers a high degree of stability and security, making it an attractive option for foreign investors and their families.
