What investment option or options qualify?

The Investor Visa is for a foreign investor, or the representative or proxy of an investing company, to carry out and execute a registered investment proposal under Angola's Private Investment Law.

  • PDF page 10, Article 59(1)
    1. O Visto de Investidor é concedido pela Autoridade Migratória ao cidadão estrangeiro investidor, representante ou procurador de empresa investidora, para fins de realização e execução de proposta de investimento desde que se encontre registado pelo órgão competente da Administração Pública, nos termos da Lei do Investimento Privado.

What official minimum amount, tier or threshold applies to each relevant option?

The checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm a minimum investment amount, tier or threshold, or the government fees. The Act requires an investment proposal registered with the competent public administration body under the Private Investment Law.

Limits of the record
  • This records that the checked official-source captures did not establish the requested detail; it does not establish that a legal rule or right is absent.
  • The official 2019 law capture supports the investment-proposal registration requirement but does not state an amount, tier, threshold or government fee here. Current legal force was not independently revalidated in this correction.

    ARTIGO 59º (Visto de investidor) 1.

How long must the investment be maintained and what continuing ownership, investment or physical-presence conditions are important?

The Act links continued residence eligibility to three years of uninterrupted presence in Angola on an Investor Visa and a declaration that the investment project remains valid. The cited provision does not state a separate minimum ownership percentage or physical-presence rule beyond that condition.

Which family members can be included where officially stated, and what broad residence/work rights result?

The consulted Act lists accompanying a family member of the Investor Visa holder as a ground for a separate Temporary Stay Visa, and that companion visa entitles its holder to carry out paid work in Angola. The official provision does not itself define which family relationships qualify.

    6. O Visto de Permanência Temporária concedido com fundamento no disposto nas alíneas b), c), d) ee) don.º 1 e no n.º 4 do presente artigo permite exercício de actividade remunerada.

What status is obtained, how is it renewed, what longer-term residence/citizenship direction is officially stated, and what happens to the investment when relevant?

The Investor Visa allows multiple entries and a stay of up to two years, renewable for equal periods according to the reason for the visa. A temporary residence authorisation may be granted after three uninterrupted years in Angola if the investment authority confirms that the project remains valid; this option does not apply to an investor representative or proxy. The official source does not state what happens to the investment.
