The Hungarian residency bond program package currently offers the cheapest investment immigration offer on the European market. However, recently a proposal has been submitted to Hungarian parliament in order to increase the face value of the investment to EUR 300,000. If the proposal is accepted, there is a chance that the processing fee would also be raised to EUR 60,000.
The Hungarian immigration program has started in 2012, and more than 1,000 packages have been sold until the end of August 2014. Within the program, businessmen from outside Europe are provided the opportunity to get a permanent resident permit in Hungary for themselves and their families (spouse and underage children). As Hungary is a member state of the European Union and the Schengen visa zone, the owner...
Immigration to Europe has several ways: you can acquire a temporary or a permanent resident permit, or even citizenship based on your different activities. However, the most comfortable method is to invest into government bonds for a given period, and acquire a resident permit based on this investment. In this regard, Hungary offers the best package in Europe: you invest only EUR 250,000 for five years, and receive a permanent resident permit for yourself and for your family.
Having a Hungarian permanent resident permit is very much like having citizenship: as Hungary is a member state of the European Union and the Schengen visa zone, you can live, travel and work freely in the Schengen zone. Moreover, you can apply for visa to the UK, Canada or the USA without further...
Investment into Hungarian government bonds (also called “residency bonds”) is a safe venture, where for a EUR 250,000 5-year investment you get a permanent resident permit in Hungary, which gives you access to the European Union and the Schengen area. The processing fee set by the government is only EUR 40,000, making it the cheapest package in Europe. As we are talking about an investment, not a purchase, the EUR 250k is fully repaid at the end of the investment period.
Although this investment is completely safe, some might prefer to choose a brand new option where they do not have to supply the EUR 250,000 themselves. Instead of investing that sum, they may opt for a bank loan to finance the investment. In this case, the investor transfers EUR 130,000 as a non-refundable...
Investment into government bonds is a safe venture. As Hungary is located in Europe, in a stable political and economical environment, no substantial change is expected in the following 5-10 years (or even in the longer run). This means that the Hungarian state will take good care of your money, and you can rest assured that you get it back to the last cent when the investment period is over. Moreover, in exchange for your investment, you and your family will receive a permanent resident permit in Hungary, that is, in the Schengen area, which will not be withdrawn even after the expiration of the investment period.
Investment into government bonds is different from other types of investment. With traditional investments, you risk your money: you offer your money to a company in...
In Europe, several countries have programs where businessmen willing to invest significant sums into government bonds are granted permanent resident permit in the given country for themselves and their families. After a lengthy preparation period, now Hungary also offers this possibility – moreover, it offers the best package in Europe.
The Hungarian program officially started in 2012, and everyone was excited waiting for all the details to be clarified. The program promised to be popular among possible investors, as at that time it was already obvious that it offers the best value for money in the area. With only one, fully returnable investment, investors can obtain a permanent resident permit for themselves and their families. As the invested amount is to be paid back at the...
