COMMON QUESTIONS

Comparar quatro vias

01Does a Vanuatu PR visa come with a passport?

No. Permanent residence is immigration status, not citizenship; DSP citizenship is a separate route.

02Can permanent residents work or operate a business?

It depends on the visa. The eVisa Permanent Residency Visa restricts employment and commercial activities; investor categories differ.

03Is every permanent-residency visa indefinite?

No. The eVisa permanent-residency product is up to 10 years. The separate Permanent Investor Visa is listed as indefinite.

04Does US$400,000 in assets guarantee eligibility?

No. This comes from Cosmo's 2026 working checklist and is not confirmed as a universal official threshold.

05Can a family of four apply?

The internal checklist lists parents and two children under 18; official eligibility and fees depend on the exact visa.

06When are fees paid?

First verify the visa category, government costs, contracting entity, written quotation and refund conditions.
