data shows that the reasons why various countries issued residence permits in 2021 are mainly work, family reunion and education, especially residence permits issued for work, accounting for more than 50% of many countries. Other types, including international asylum, retirement/investment immigration that are not allowed to work, only account for a decimal.
It can be seen from this that actually investing in immigration is not the mainstream immigration method in Europe.
But why are European investment immigration projects promoted so many times in China?
The reason is very simple. The threshold for investment immigration is low. As long as the money is in place and there are not many other requirements, it is easy to get customers. More importantly, investment immigration is easy to operate and institutions can make a lot of money. This has led to not much information in China that objectively analyzes the pros and cons of investment immigration, and is often one-sidedly praised.
It is undeniable that for many people with education and backgrounds that do not reach the immigration threshold, investing in immigration is indeed a good way to obtain identity. But we must also be clear that there are some disadvantages and risks of investment immigration in .
First of all, immigration policy is unstable.
Investment immigration is an immigration channel opened by European countries to attract foreign investment. Its essence is to attract funds rather than population. So when the policy harms its own residents, the government will make appropriate adjustments, including raising the threshold and closure. The Greek Golden Visa and Portugal Golden Visa are the most naked examples. These two projects can be said to be the most popular home purchase immigration project in Europe, but now one has officially announced the price increase by double, and the other is considering closure. The reason is that a large number of foreigners are pouring in to buy high-value real estate, resulting in local residents not being able to buy/group or rent a house. In this case, even if the government lacks money, it is impossible to exchange the interests of its own citizens.
Secondly, has a low identity level.
European investment immigration is basically issued for temporary residence or permanent residence without work rights. Anyway, identity is restricted. For example, immigrants who buy houses in Greek and Cyprus cannot work, pay insurance, and receive pensions. The reason is the essence of investment immigration to attract funds rather than population. The reason we mentioned earlier is that the essence of investment immigration is to attract funds rather than population. The government will not treat you as its own person and does not want you to seize the welfare resources of local people. How could such an identity that even the issuing country be restricted? How could it be favored when going to other EU countries?
So, what kind of immigration method should I recommend to immigrate to Europe?
Through the previous data and analysis, is obviously popular in Europe and has a higher identity rating. If it is difficult for you to actually work and start a business in Europe, you can choose immigration projects that use corporate guarantee and self-employed (entrepreneurship), such as Slovakia talent immigration, German blue card , etc.
