Guernsey Investor & Entrepreneur Residency

Investors:

Deposit of £1m in a Guernsey bank account, £750,000 should subsequently be invested “to the benefit of the Bailiwick”.

Guernsey’s Committee for Economic Development considers the three following options as ‘suitable’ investments:

•  £750,000 placed on deposit in a GFSC-regulated Guernsey bank
• (In addition to the property in which the applicant lives), the purchase and retention of an Open Market property of a value no less than £750,000
• Investment of £750,000 into another Guernsey opportunity of the applicant’s choosing that is
  considered satisfactory by the States of Guernsey.

Entrepreneurs

Individuals who intend to live in Guernsey and take an active role in the running of a business in Guernsey can qualify for residency.

The applicant must be able to show they have at least £200,000 in their name in a bank account and which they must be prepared to invest into an existing Guernsey business. Creating a new Guernsey business, again with a minimum £200,000, is also acceptable.
