2013 was truly the year of immigration to Europe, as traditional destinations like the United States, Canada, and Macau continued to raise their thresholds, while various European countries rushed to introduce immigration policies linked to real estate. Through simple property investment, with basically no requirements for language proficiency, educational background, management experience, or proof of funds, one can obtain residency status in European countries.
As a leading institution in domestic European investment immigration, Worldway was the first to propose the concept of "Year of Immigration to Europe" in early 2013, subsequently launching projects in Cyprus, Portugal, and recently introducing the newly approved €500,000 investment immigration project in Spain. This has attracted numerous investors to sign contracts with Worldway, visit European countries for property inspections, and successfully obtain residency status. According to Worldway experts, the main reasons for the popularity of European investment immigration are primarily children's education and career expansion.
Europe is a continent with a long history and highly developed civilization, boasting a strong educational tradition and many renowned institutions, with a very high level of education. For example, under the Portugal Golden Residence Permit program, the main and secondary applicants and their children can enjoy all the benefits of the country except for the right to vote and be elected after obtaining residency. For immigrant children, obtaining Portuguese nationality allows them to enjoy the same treatment as EU students, with almost all courses recognized by the Ministry of Education, and their qualifications are valid throughout Europe. If they choose to further their studies in other European countries, the costs are only about 40% of those for self-funded international students. With numerous countries in Europe, rich cultures and customs, along with the agreements among Schengen countries, it is even more beneficial for studying cross-cultural arts management.
As one of the world's major economies, the EU countries have a high degree of economic interdependence and close interactions, making them particularly suitable for investors looking to expand their businesses in Europe. Taking Spain, which has recently launched new immigration policies, as an example, Spain is one of the developed countries in the West, with a leading economic scale in Europe, a complete market economy system, free high-quality compulsory education, sound medical insurance, a relaxed legal and tax system, extensive transportation facilities, and a superior geographical location, often referred to as the "Gateway to Europe," serving as a bridge and springboard to the entire Europe and South America.
Worldway experts also emphasize that from an investment perspective, due to the impact of the European crisis, property prices in various European countries have nearly hit rock bottom, and the euro exchange rate has also bottomed out, making this an excellent opportunity to invest in European real estate. As signs of economic recovery in Europe strengthen, the potential for appreciation in European real estate will be significant.
