- Eligibility
- Qualification depends on the recognised professional, scientific, cultural, sporting, investment or economic contribution and the official evaluation criteria.
- Requirements
- Submit qualifications, professional achievements or investment and economic-contribution evidence with the prescribed application documents. Monitoring obligations apply during transition. Family residence documents are assessed separately.
