Worldway reports: The United Kingdom is a dream destination for many immigrants. However, since November 6 of last year, the UK Home Office has confirmed the implementation of a new UK immigration policy, raising the investment immigration amount to £2 million, significantly increasing the difficulty and risk of immigration. Obtaining UK permanent residency through Chinese identity now takes over 5 years, leaving many investors feeling helpless. So, is it possible to obtain UK residency in 3 months?
【UK Landscape】
After the introduction of the new UK immigration policy, non-EU individuals must meet the following requirements: applicants must be at least 18 years old, must reside before investing, and must complete the investment within 3 months while not exceeding 180 days of absence in a year. Permanent residency can be applied for after 5 years of investment. Furthermore, the full £2 million must be invested in designated government bonds, corporate bonds, or stocks, and the option to use 25% of the investment amount for purchasing property or fixed deposits has been removed, along with the formal abolition of the loan application method for investment immigration. This new policy has shattered the immigration dreams of many Chinese investors.
Given the new UK immigration policy, it seems impossible to quickly obtain UK residency directly with a Chinese identity. Worldway immigration experts state that the new policy raises the investment threshold and comes with higher risks, along with restrictions on large funds. An indirect approach may be attempted to achieve rapid permanent residency in the UK. Currently, Cyprus only requires 3 months to obtain residency, and by investing €2.5 million, one can acquire a Cypriot EU passport, which provides a shortcut to quickly obtaining UK residency.

Cyprus is an EU country. By obtaining Cypriot citizenship and holding an EU passport, one can live, study, receive medical care, work, and enjoy business benefits in 28 EU countries (including the UK). With a Cypriot passport, one has the right to settle in the UK and immediately enjoy permanent residency benefits, and can apply for UK citizenship after 5 years, obtaining British citizenship. This is a cost-effective and pressure-relieving way to address the increased immigration thresholds and difficulties in the UK.

Currently, Worldway Immigration Agency offers a project where investing €2.5 million in Cyprus allows you to own a 28-acre Mediterranean estate and obtain high-value EU passports for the entire family. In just 3 months, the whole family can obtain Cypriot passports, which are EU passports. Therefore, investing in this project offers excellent value for money, allowing you to customize your residence and obtain an EU passport, giving you the freedom to choose to live in 28 EU countries (including the UK, Germany, and France) and enjoy the same treatment as local citizens, enabling you to truly achieve rapid UK residency.
