-- Citizenship Network today announced the launch of a comprehensive advisory service for the Latvia Golden Visa program, supporting three lawful pathways to obtain a Latvian temporary residence permit: (1) Real Estate Purchase, (2) Company Setup (self-employment or management/board role), and (3) Latvian Company Investment starting from €50,000.
“Latvia’s investor residency framework is one of the most accessible in the European Union. With clear thresholds and predictable requirements, it provides a practical route for families and entrepreneurs who seek Schengen mobility and a legitimate base in the EU,” said the Director of Citizenship Network. The director added, “The new service bundles end-to-end guidance, from eligibility screening to file submission with Latvia’s Office of Citizenship and Migration Affairs (OCMA), ensuring applicants move efficiently and compliantly.”
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE THREE ROUTES
-Latvia Golden Visa by Real Estate Investment
• Minimum purchase value: €250,000 for eligible residential or commercial property in designated municipalities. An additional 5% of the purchase price is payable to the state budget at the first permit stage.
• Key compliance points include non-cash settlement of the purchase price, cadastral value thresholds, and restrictions on agricultural or wooded land.
• Family members, including spouses and dependent children, may be included in the residence permit application.
-Latvia Golden Visa by Company Setup (Business/Management or Self-Employment)
• Applicants may qualify for a residence permit as a self-employed person or as a board member or manager of a Latvian company, subject to economic activity, income, and tax criteria, as well as an approved business plan where applicable.
• This route suits founders intending to operate a business in Latvia, maintain a local footprint, and demonstrate sufficient means and tax compliance.
• Validity and renewal are assessed by OCMA based on continued business activity and compliance with statutory requirements.
-Latvia Golden Visa by Latvian Company Investment (€50,000)
• A residence permit may be obtained by investing from €50,000 into the share capital of a qualifying Latvian company (typically SMEs), along with a one-time €10,000 payment to the state budget and fulfillment of company performance and tax obligations.
• The law limits the number of foreign investors per company under this route to ensure substance and regulatory oversight.
• This option represents a cost-efficient entry point to EU residency for active investors preferring corporate participation over property acquisition.

• Access to an EU market hub with expanding logistics, fintech, and digital industries
• A path toward long-term residence status, subject to residence duration and integration criteria
