Frequently asked questions

Who qualifies for the LTR visa?

The LTR has four categories — Wealthy, Pensioner, Professional and Investor — with income guidance starting from USD 80,000 per year depending on your category. Pensioners, for example, generally need USD 80,000+ in annual passive income. We assess your finances and match you to the strongest category for your situation.

How long is the LTR valid and what benefits does it include?

The LTR is valid for up to 10 years and includes fast-track services, multiple-entry rights and a digital work permit. It is designed for high-net-worth individuals, pensioners, investors and high-earning remote professionals.

Do I need health insurance for the LTR?

Yes — you must show health insurance, or alternatively a USD 100,000 deposit. Applicants often overlook this, so it is worth preparing early alongside your income, asset or investment evidence.
