Investor Visa (Talent Passport Investor)

Residency by Investment for high-net-worth individuals contributing to the French economy.

Visa Overview

The Investor Visa, part of the "Passeport Talent" scheme, is designed for individuals making a significant economic investment in France. This multi-year residency permit (valid for up to 4 years and renewable) offers full residency for you and your immediate family, granting access to one of the world's leading economies and the entire Schengen Area.

Unlike some other programs, the French Investor Visa requires active economic participation rather than purely passive real estate acquisition.
