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

The checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm how long the investment must be kept and the continuing conditions.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • Searched Investment Promotion Law Art. 64(3) and surrounding articles for holding period, continued ownership or physical-presence conditions for the real-estate owner; none stated. The 10-year visa term belongs to R5.

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

The real-estate owner provision grants the individual foreigner a multiple-entry visa for an initial term of 10 years, renewable, but does not mention family members. The same article separately gives a foreign developer or investor investing in a SEZ or SpEZ, together with their family members, special consideration for foreigner registration, stay permit and multiple-entry visa issuance; the official source does not state whether that family provision covers a real-estate owner.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • The provision names developers and investors; it does not expressly say the real-estate owner's family is included.
  • The source does not define which family members qualify or state their work rights.

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 checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm the status obtained, renewal, longer-term direction and what happens to the investment.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • Not established: the correction failed a second independent check (NAO_RESPONDE: Source clearly answers R5: Art. 64(3) (capture 35d0) 'shall receive a multiple-entry visa for an initial term of ten (10) years. The term may be renewed.' Left empty for a process reason (citation protected by R1), not absence in source.)

These are the answers currently recorded in the catalogue. A missing or partial answer is not an eligibility decision.
