The Citizenship By Investment Programme From Golden Residence Index

Getting citizenship in another country is a challenging and lengthy process. Most countries have strict laws that protect their sovereignty, and citizenship requirements can include language fluency, citizenship tests, a clean criminal record, and meeting residency criteria. The number of visas can be limited, and priority is given to essential skills or family connections.

So that’s why golden visas are so exciting! “Golden visa” is a popular name for citizenship by investment program. It’s a type of residency permit or visa that is granted to foreign investors who make a significant investment in a country’s economy.

The name “Golden Visa” comes from the fact that it is often seen as a golden opportunity for investors to gain access to a country’s benefits and privileges, including the ability to work, live, and travel freely within the country. Different countries have different investment requirements and eligibility criteria for obtaining a Golden Visa, but typical investment options include buying property, investing in a business, or making a donation to a government fund.

But this can still be a lengthy process, so from the application of the form to the processing, companies like Global Residence Index exist to help. Here’s more about golden visas.

Reasons to Work Remotely From Spain

With the shift towards remote work becoming a permanent part of employment culture, and the world fighting to win back tourist dollars, countries are starting to target a unique group of travellers.

Digital nomads are on the rise; setting themselves up in other countries and working from their laptops for an extended period of time. Visas used to be the issue with this type of lifestyle; you could traditionally only spend 30 – 90 days in a country as a tourist, and didn’t have the legal right to work.

But that’s all changing, and with 50+ countries now offering generous long term visas specifically for remote workers, the question then becomes which one to choose as your base.
