Wealthy citizens of Kazakhstan have become increasingly interested in migration services since the beginning of the pandemia in 2019. The focus of attention is European investment programs offering residence permits.
A residence permit or permanent residence allows the holder to relocate to the chosen country with the family, as relatives can become residents, too. The most popular programs are the Portugal Golden Visa and the Malta Permanent Residence Programme.
Being an EU resident is an opportunity to enter the Schengen countries visa-free, have a backup plane in case of an emergency, provide children with a chance to get an education at EU schools and universities and access services of European banks. If entrepreneurs are EU residents, they can unlock new opportunities for their businesses.
