Investment Immigration

Because of a changing political landscape, China is currently experiencing a surge in demand for immigration services. As a natural extension of its Cross-border Merger and Acquisition Services Bridges Consultants offers immigration services focused on Chinese investors, entrepreneurs and professionals.

Services

Immigration through direct investment

Bridges Consultants represents Chinese customers to find reliable investments of over 1.25 mio euro in the Netherlands or represents Dutch companies to find Chinese investors for which immigration is an objective. As returns in Europe are generally lower than in China, and Chinese individuals are hesitant to invest abroad because of unfamiliarity with the legal system or distrust in the legal system in general, it is often only because of the possibility of obtaining a residence permit Chinese investors can be persuaded to invest as a minority shareholder in the Netherlands. Investments of 1.25 million or more would qualify Chinese individuals for permanent investment residency in the Netherlands.
Bridges Consultants coordinates with the relevant agencies like the Netherlands Enterprise Agency to get the projects approved and the Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND) for the residence permit application.

Immigration through investment in SEED fund

An alternative way of obtaining residency is through investment in a participation fund.
Bridges Consultants has established cooperation with recognized and qualifying participation funds. As these funds are already recognized by the Dutch government, the approval procedure is much easier.

Job Recruitment and Establishment of Start Ups

Other ways for Chinese individuals to qualify for a residency permit is working like a knowledge migrant or through the establishment of a start-up in the Netherlands. Bridges Consultants can also facilitate this.
