About Belize Citizenship and Residency

Belize is one of the most appealing tourist destinations for American citizens. There is no traditional Belize citizenship by investment, however, there are several other alternatives foreign citizens can rely on if they want to immigrate here. Also, they can apply for temporary residence permits that can be converted into permanent residence ones followed by citizenship by making certain investments. So even if obtained through investment, the Belize residence permit is considered a traditional one. When you arrive in Belize, you are granted a 30-day visa. This applies to all visitors across the board. This same visa can be renewed for up to six months at any immigration office.

Section 16 6 of the Act provides that a person who is present in Belize for 183 days or more during the calendar year is deemed to be a resident.

 

Belize Residency Options:

Even if there is no dedicated Belize citizenship by investment program, there are two options for those who want to move here:

  • the first one targets businesspersons who can invest in local companies;
  • retired people who must submit proof of a specific monthly income.

 

1. Temporary Residence (businesspersons who can invest in local companies):

Temporary Residence is for persons who have made or are in the process of making a substantial commercial investment in Belize but due to commitments outside Belize cannot meet ordinary Permanent Residence restrictions.

Temporary Residence status is given for only one (1) year and becomes renewable at the end of that given period.

For persons applying for Temporary Residence, you are required to:

  1. Show evidence of investments in Belize valued at not less than five hundred thousand Belize dollars – BZ$500,000.00.
  2. You must submit a valid passport from your country of Citizenship.
  3. You must submit a police record from your last country of residence (valid for 6 months from the date of application).
  4. A letter to the Director of Nationality and Passports Department explaining your reason for requesting temporary residency in Belize must be submitted with your application.
  5. You must provide evidence that you have a residence in Belize.

 

2. Qualified Retired Person Incentive Program

Under the Qualified Retired Person Incentive Program (QPR), the Belize Tourism Board grants resident visas to individuals aged 45 or older, who prove a foreign source pension or annuity or another acceptable source of income of at least USD2,000 per month. Applicants must sign an undertaking to transfer the aforementioned income into a bank, credit union, or any financial institution in Belize

Requirements/elligibility

– Be at least 45 years of age.

– Proof of income: An official statement from a bank or financial institution certifying that the applicant is the recipient of a pension or annuity of a minimum of US$2,000 per month, or a Financial Statement from a financial institution, bank, credit union, or building society in Belize certifying that the applicant’s investment or deposit will generate the sum of a minimum of US$2000 per month, or the equivalent of US$24,000 per year.

– No criminal record.
