Ireland Residency Program – The Irish Golden Visa<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

The Ireland residence by investment program was first introduced in 2012. It took time for the program to pick up, but since 2016 it has experienced a boom, with more than a thousand applicants getting approved each year. Approved applicants receive temporary residence totaling 5 years, after which they become eligible for permanent residence and Irish citizenship. The Irish passport is one of the world\u2019s best, providing visa-free travel to the U.S. and freedom of movement across Europe. Ireland provides non-domiciled with taxation based on remittance, which is financially advantageous for wealthy foreigners.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
