LatviaThe World’s Top Residency by Investment Programs
Invest in a secure future for your family. Obtain permanent residency through investment and gain the freedom to live, work, and travel across Europe without borders.
What is Residency by Investment
Residency by investment (often referred to as a “Golden Visa”) is a government-approved legal process that grants individuals a residence permit in exchange for a qualifying financial investment, such as real estate or capital transfer.
Unlike citizenship programs, these EU residency by investment options offer you and your family the right to live, study, and conduct business in Europe, along with visa-free travel across the Schengen Area.
They provide a secure pathway to permanent residency or future citizenship, often with minimal physical presence requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
In most European programs, you do not get permanent residency immediately. You start with a temporary residence permit (valid for 1-5 years).
To obtain permanent residency through investment, you must typically hold this temporary permit for 5 years, maintain your investment, and meet specific stay requirements (which vary by country).
Many countries offer these pathways. Karibi Consultants specializes in the top European residency by investment programs that offer a clear legal route to permanent status: Greece, Portugal, and Latvia.
All three allow you to upgrade to permanent residency after 5 years of maintaining your status.
We focus on the most secure and beneficial residency by investment programs in Europe:
- Greece Golden Visa: Famous for its real estate options and no stay requirements.
- Portugal Golden Visa: Attractive for its diverse investment options (like funds) and low physical presence requirement.
- Latvia Residence Permit: Known for being the most affordable entry into the EU.
"Easiest" depends on your goals:
- For Process & Stay: Greece requires no physical presence to maintain residency.
- For Low Cost: Latvia has the lowest entry threshold, starting at €60,000.
- For Passive Investing: Portugal offers Investment Funds, avoiding property maintenance hassles.
Yes. Residency through investment is designed for families. You can include your spouse and dependent children in the same application.
Greece & Portugal are exceptionally generous, allowing you to include dependent parents (and even grandparents in some cases) as well.
Your choice should be based on three main factors:
- Budget: How much capital can you deploy? (Latvia is low, Greece/Portugal are mid-range).
- Presence: Can you live in Europe? (If not, Greece is ideal).
- End Goal: Do you want a passport?
We recommend booking a free consultation to compare these options against your specific profile.
