Dutch and U.S. citizens should first compare their separate admission arrangements. Other applicants can use this investor category if they meet its financial and personal requirements.

  1. Define the investment Document at least XCG 500,000 made or intended.
  2. Check policy acceptance Show the proposal meets the economic-benefit criteria.
  3. Prepare the application Document lasting resources, personal records, and insurance.

What This Route Allows

The published tiers are three years from XCG 500,000, five years from XCG 750,000, and an indefinite period from XCG 1,500,000. The approval and ongoing conditions govern the actual right to remain. Family members require the appropriate applications and evidence.

What This Route Is Not

Ordinary property ownership, an investment budget, or an unapproved project is not equivalent to an issued investor permit. Business licensing and permission for particular work may require separate review.

Next Steps

  1. Describe the investment and choose the permit length you want to apply for.
  2. Confirm with Immigration how that investment meets the policy and what evidence is needed.
  3. Document available funds, independent support, and the applicant’s personal records.
  4. Follow the current application instructions; first applications normally require waiting abroad.
