- Program Overview
Golden Visa Investment Options Explained
Every Golden Visa program defines one or more qualifying investments that grant residency. Understanding the options helps you choose a route that fits your budget, risk appetite and long-term plans. Below are the main investment types across the programs we advise on.
Real estate
Property remains the most popular route, offering a tangible, potentially appreciating asset. Greece and Italy offer attractive real-estate-linked options, and the property can typically be sold after the required holding period.
Investment funds
Regulated venture-capital and real-estate funds have become a leading route, notably in Portugal and Hungary. Funds offer a professionally managed, passive alternative to direct property ownership.
Government bonds, business and deposits
Other routes include government or corporate bonds, capital investment in a qualifying company (which can create jobs), and, in some programs, a bank deposit. Latvia is known for its flexible, accessible options.
Choosing the right route
The best option balances cost, liquidity, risk and whether you want a tangible asset or a hands-off investment. Our advisors compare the routes across programs so you can invest with confidence. See the full Golden Visa guide or read about permanent residency pathways.
