The United Kingdom (UK) left the European Union (EU) on the 31st January 2020 (BREXIT). If you are lucky to have an European Union (EU) passport obtaining residency is straight forward for you and any Non-EU family members.
If you only hold a non-EU passport don't despair, there are other options. The typical choices for UK Citizens / Passports holders are the Non Lucrative Visa (NLV), or Digital Nomad Visa (DNV). The Golden Visa for real-estate investment is no longer available for residency since a change in the law in April 2025.
You can find an overview of the popular residency and visa options that we can help with below. Delve deeper by checking out our other resources by clicking on the buttons below.
