Time flies, and in the past year of 2018, the immigration landscape has been tumultuous. The varying quality of immigration policies across countries has filled overseas immigration with uncertainty. As we enter 2019, what trends will the overseas immigration market present? Recently, the "2019 Six Major Immigration Trends" released by the WorldWay Immigration Group has attracted widespread attention from the industry and numerous domestic media. Among them, due to Brexit, EU passport programs such as those in Cyprus are expected to be favored, making them one of the "Six Major Immigration Trends of 2019" and drawing significant attention.
Brexit: EU Passport Programs Will Be Highly Popular
Since the UK voted to leave the EU in 2016, news regarding the progress of Brexit has been continuous. Official UK announcements confirm that the country will exit the EU at midnight on March 29, 2019; on November 25, 2018, the leaders of the 27 EU countries, excluding the UK, officially approved the Brexit agreement draft previously reached with the UK at a special EU summit; the EU citizens' settlement scheme will be fully implemented on March 30, 2019, allowing applicants who obtain UK residency as EU citizens before the deadline of June 30, 2021, to remain unaffected by Brexit and continue to live, work, and study in the UK.
As a member of the EU, Cyprus allows individuals to obtain an EU passport through property purchase. Holders of a Cypriot passport can apply for residency in the UK if they meet the residency requirements; after fulfilling certain conditions, they can apply for British citizenship. Thanks to the announcement of the UK residency policy, the Cypriot EU passport program is expected to be highly popular in 2019.
Cypriot EU Passport: One Investment, Multiple Rewards
Through the Cyprus investment program, an investment of over 2 million euros in Cypriot real estate, whether one property or multiple properties, not only grants permanent ownership of the property but also allows participation in the Cypriot real estate market investment, benefiting from the appreciation brought about by the recovery of the real estate market and economy. Additionally, the entire family can quickly obtain a highly valuable Cypriot EU passport, enjoying numerous benefits such as seamless access to education for children at world-renowned institutions like Oxford and Cambridge; favorable tax systems for overseas investments; and a livable environment that provides health and retirement security for parents. One investment yields multiple rewards.
Moreover, holding a Cypriot EU passport allows for free movement, work, and residence in 28 EU member countries (including the UK, Germany, Austria, Italy, France, Finland, etc.) as well as in three member countries of the European Economic Area (Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein) and Switzerland, totaling 32 European countries, enjoying the generous benefits of EU citizenship. 1=32!!!
