Maldives Investor Visa: Residence Permit for Investments Starting at $250,000

The Maldives authorities have launched the «Investor Visa» program, which allows foreign citizens to obtain long-term residency by investing in luxury real estate. The relevant agreement was signed with the consulting firm Henley & Partners during the business forum «Maldives — Singapore 2025» on Sentosa Island.

The program is part of the Vision 2040 strategy and aims to diversify the economy, reduce dependency on tourism, and attract major investors. The Ministry of Economic Development and Trade expects the initiative to support the growth of sectors such as infrastructure, insurance, tourism, and services, as well as contribute to the creation of new jobs.

Investors will be able to apply for five-year resident visas (with the possibility of extension), including family members, without the need for permanent residence in the country. It is reported that the minimum investment level is from $250,000, with ultra-luxury class projects involving investments up to $5 million. The final decisions on visa issuance are made by the government of the Maldives.
