Residency by investment offers foreign entrepreneurs and investors a practical pathway to live, work, and eventually obtain permanent residency or citizenship in Lithuania and other European countries. This process typically involves investing in a business, real estate, or government-approved venture.
In Lithuania, investors can either establish a new company, invest in a startup, or acquire an existing business that contributes to the local economy. The step-by-step process generally includes choosing the investment option, registering a company, opening a bank account, fulfilling minimum capital requirements, obtaining the necessary business licenses, and submitting a Temporary Residency Permit (TRP) application.
Once granted, investors can reside in Lithuania with full access to the Schengen Area. After maintaining legal residence and meeting other conditions (such as continuous stay and language requirements), investors may qualify for Permanent Residency or even Citizenship. Similar structured pathways are available across Europe, each with specific financial thresholds and residency obligations.
