Enterprise Investment

Non-EEA nationals can secure residency in exchange for approved investment in Ireland. Once approved, your family can work, study & reside in Ireland.

The Enterprise Investment Programme

A minimum investment of €1 million in either a single Irish enterprise or spread over a number of enterprises for a minimum of 3 years. The enterprise may be a start-up established by the investor or an existing business registered in Ireland. The enterprise must be registered and headquartered in Ireland and the investment must support the creation or maintenance of employment.

The investment must be made in the name of the individual seeking residence under the Programme. A purely speculative investment aimed at increasing profits through reduction in staff or moving jobs offshore would not be acceptable for the purposes of the Programme.

An investment by a corporation, even where owned 100% by the applicant will not be acceptable. An investment which comprises the purchase of publicly traded securities will not be considered as an eligible investment under the enterprise option.

An investment in commercial or residential property for the purposes of leasing or renting that property to tenants will not be considered as an eligible investment under the enterprise option.

The investment must be held for a minimum of 3 years
