What is a Startup Visa and What Are Its Benefits?
A Startup Visa allows entrepreneurs to launch and expand their business in a foreign country. This visa grants you the right to live in the host country for a specified period while benefiting from financial support, consulting, and access to global markets. Its advantages include opportunities for rapid growth, access to advanced entrepreneurial ecosystems, and the possibility of attracting international investors. The program exists in over 40 countries, enabling entrepreneurs to globalize their business.
Startup Visa Program is Not a Fit for You If:
- You are looking for a work permit.
- You want to pursue academic studies abroad.
- Your sole purpose is immigration without having a business idea.
