Residence Permits and Golden Visas

Greece, Portugal, the UAE, Georgia

Residence Permits and Golden Visas

Long-term residence through real-estate or fund investment; family coverage, renewal and the road to citizenship.

File management from 65,000 TRY

Golden visa and investor residence programmes, unlike citizenship, give the right to live and work in the country and (mostly) to move freely in regions such as Schengen. The residence requirement differs from country to country; in some programmes staying only a few days a year is enough.

Programmes

  • Greece: residence through real-estate investment; the minimum amount varies by region and spouse and children are covered.
  • Portugal: residence through an investment of €500,000 in approved investment funds; the process can be long.
  • UAE: a 10-year renewable Golden Visa through real-estate investment, with quick processing.
  • Georgia: a residence permit through a property purchase, with a low entry budget.

Questions to ask when deciding

  • Will the investment earn income, or is it only for residence?
  • When and at what value can you dispose of the investment?
  • Does tax residency coincide with time spent there?
  • Up to what age are family members covered?

Process and duration

Most programmes take one to six months, but waiting in some European programmes can reach 12 months. Menzil manages the tax number, bank account, investment contract and application steps on your behalf, working with our law partners.

Frequently asked questions

Do you guarantee approval?
No. A residence, citizenship or work permit decision belongs to the relevant state body alone. No advisory company can guarantee approval. We provide profile analysis, document and source-of-funds preparation, compliance and process management.
Is the investment amount included in your advisory fee?
No. The investment amount is paid directly to the government fund, the property seller or the investment fund; we do not collect cash on behalf of clients. Our advisory (file management) fee is written fixed and separately in the contract.
What is the difference between citizenship and residence?
Citizenship gives you that country's passport and all rights of citizenship; residence gives the right to live and often work in the country but no passport. Residence often depends on holding the investment and must be renewed.
Is dual citizenship allowed in Türkiye?
Turkish nationality law permits dual citizenship; however, you need to notify Türkiye of your second citizenship and assess obligations such as tax and military service separately. Confirm the current legislation with your legal adviser.
Why is the source of funds so important?
States and banks examine the legitimate source of invested money under anti-money-laundering rules. An undocumented or inconsistent source is the most common reason for refusal. The SoF report should therefore be prepared before the investment decision.
