Crossing Borders Bulletin
Volume 9 Issue 2

September 2024



 

 

Welcome

 

 

 

Dear Valuable Reader,

We are excited to present the latest edition of the Crossing Borders newsletter, packed with insights and updates on investment migration and global mobility from our members.

In this issue, we highlight the E-2 Treaty Investor Visa, showcasing its advantages as a non-immigrant option for those looking to live and work in the United States without worldwide tax obligations.

We also feature Latvia’s Golden Visa programme, which stands out as one of the most affordable options in Europe, with a minimum investment of just €50,000.

Additionally, we explore Portugal’s recent Action Plan for Migration, which aims to streamline immigration processes and enhance integration.

Another key topic is Hong Kong’s revitalised Capital Investment Entrant Scheme, which is generating significant interest and is poised to attract substantial investments.

We address the important issue of involuntary migration, examining the global factors driving this concern and the need for contingency plans.

Lastly, we look at the Thailand Privilege Card programme, designed for those seeking prolonged stays in Thailand, offering various appealing membership options.

As always, our goal is to keep you informed about the latest developments in investment migration and the opportunities they present.

One quick announcement: We will soon be publishing the IM Yearbook 2025—the quintessential publication for Investment Migration which will be unveiled at IMC House during the World Economic Forum in Davos next January. Anyone who is anybody in this field gets a copy or is featured within its insightful pages. We still have space for a few more advertisers and welcome features, company and professional profiles, and even opinion pieces. Drop us an email to learn more,  check out our Media Kit here or register your interest by clicking HERE.

Happy reading!
