<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr">Arab Weather - <a href="https://livelovesaudi.net/"><strong>Live the love of Saudi Arabia</strong></a> - Many people dream of moving abroad, whether it is to explore new cultures, seek a slower and more stable lifestyle, or even to escape the constant political changes in their countries. However, obtaining residency or citizenship in a new country is one of the most prominent challenges facing immigrants, as this often requires work visas or complex legal procedures.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> However, in light of the global trend towards facilitating foreign investment, many countries have introduced “golden visa” programs, or what is known as “citizenship through investment.” These programs allow individuals the opportunity to obtain permanent residency or citizenship when investing in the real estate sector, but with specific conditions and standards that differ from one country to another. These conditions may include specific investment amounts, time periods for holding the property, and even additional fees.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Below is a list of countries that offer these programs, which can be an ideal option for those looking to live abroad with the benefits of residency or citizenship:</p><h3 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></h3><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>List of countries that grant residency or citizenship when purchasing a property:</strong></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><ol style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>United Arab Emirates (Dubai)</strong><ul style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Residence or Nationality: Nationality</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Investment Requirement: $545,000</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Investors receive a golden visa that can be renewed for long periods, with the possibility of obtaining citizenship later if certain criteria are met.</li></ul></li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Türkiye</strong><ul style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Residence or Nationality: Nationality</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Investment Requirement: $400,000</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The property must not be sold for three years, after which it is possible to apply for citizenship.</li></ul></li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Dominica</strong><ul style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Residence or Nationality: Nationality</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Investment Requirement: $200,000</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Government approved projects must be purchased and additional fees starting at $75,000 must be paid.</li></ul></li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Saint Kitts and Nevis</strong><ul style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Residence or Nationality: Nationality</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Investment Requirement: $325,000 (for approved properties)</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> There is no residency requirement, but the property must be held for a minimum of seven years. </li></ul></li></ol><p style="margin-right:1.0in;;text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style="margin-right:1.0in;;text-align:left;direction:ltr"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2020/10%20%D8%AF%D9%88%D9%84%D8%A9%20%D8%AA%D9%85%D9%86%D8%AD%D9%83%20%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AC%D9%86%D8%B3%D9%8A%D8%A9%20%D8%B9%D9%86%D8%AF%20%D8%B4%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%A1%20%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%AA.jpg" style="width: 400px;
