Ireland

  • Located in Western Europe in a strategic position on major air and sea routes between North America and Northern Europe, Ireland is poetically named the ‘Emerald Isle’ for its lush landscapes and rich vegetation. The country ranks among the top five most developed nations on the UN’s Human Development Index, and its economy holds 3rd position on the 2022 Index of Economic Freedom.

Ireland Citizenship and Investment

The Ireland Residence by Investment Program

Ireland boasts one of Europe’s fastest growing economies and an enviable tech environment. The Ireland Residence by Investment Program was introduced by the Irish government in 2012 to encourage foreign direct investment into the country.

Ireland golden visa requirements

To qualify for residence, applicants are required to fulfill one of the following investment options:

  • EUR 500,000 non-refundable endowment into a philanthropic cause for public benefit
  • EUR 1 million into an approved investment fund, held for three years

(Further information on the other investment options offered by the government is available on request.)

In addition, applicants must satisfy the following requirements:
