Limits of the record
  • No business plan, clients, contracts or job-creation evidence is stated.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • Whether the tax-payment proof also applies to sole owners is not explicit in the text.

What business/self-employed activity may the holder conduct? Are there important restrictions? What is the family position where clearly stated?

The checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm the business activity the holder may carry out, its restrictions and the family position.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • Searched for permitted business activities, restrictions and family position for owners/partners; the procedure lists only documents.

What approval/application sequence applies, how long is the status granted, how is it renewed, and what longer-term residence direction is officially stated?

The biometric resident card is personal and valid for one (1) to five (5) years; foreigners wishing to settle must apply at least 15 days before their visa or entry authorisation expires, and establishment, replacement or renewal requests are made in person at a CAR/Citizens' Reception Centre or remotely through the Houwiyeti system. The official source does not state a longer-term residence direction.

Limits of the record
  • The cited resident-card decree is the general rule for all resident cards, not specific to this route.
  • Business-specific approval sequence and longer-term residence direction are not stated.
