Latvia offers one of the most competitive residency-by-investment programs in Europe, commonly known as the “Golden Visa”. It was designed to attract foreign capital and stimulate the economy.
By investing in real estate or business capital, non-EU citizens can obtain a 5-year temporary residence permit, which allows for free movement within the Schengen Zone and the opportunity to live in a safe, green, and culturally rich European country.
