Turks and Caicos Islands Home Owner's Permit (Immigration Regulations regs 33-37)

Sells the right to live in the country (a “golden visa”), sometimes leading to citizenship later.

Lowest price for one person: US$300,000

Home bought or built for at least US$300,000 (Immigration Regulations, reg. 33(3)); five-year renewable Home Owner's Permit, without the right to work. The law prints '$'; the islands use the US dollar. Fees excluded (US$1,500 plus US$150).

Notes from the research

Permit for owners of a home worth at least US$300,000 (reg 33(3)), valid 5 years (reg 34(2)), fee US$1,500 (Schedule 7). Separate from the investor residence permit (reg 24, condition B). The current Ordinance and Regulations came into force on 1 April 2016; the Ordinance repealed and re-enacted an earlier one, which was not read, so the launch is left empty. Status active (checked 2026-10-11): the Border Control website lists Home Owners among the residence permit categories it issues, its FAQ gives a processing time of up to six weeks for the Home Owner category, the current application form has a Home Owner box, and no repeal or suspension was found. No counts found.

Notes from the research

Under the Immigration Ordinance (Cap. 5.01, Ordinance 19 of 2015) and Immigration Regulations (L.N. 28/2016 as amended). Investor PRCs existed before 2012 (the 2009 Auld inquiry recorded complaints of grants for bribes); a moratorium and 2012 reform left only a 10-year investor residence permit, and an investor PRC route was reintroduced in 2013. Routes: home of US$1m (US$300,000 on Grand Turk and family islands), business of US$1.5m (US$750,000) employing at least 60% non-work-permit holders, US$1m contribution to a designated public project, or US$1m in a home or business. US$25,000 fee. Investment must be kept 5 years (since June 2018). The Governor must set a quota; none was found published. PRC does not give British Overseas Territories citizenship. No official counts found.

  • Investor residence permit: we found no published numbers at all, only rules and events.
  • Permanent residence by investment: we found no published numbers at all, only rules and events.
  • 1 not yet read; what remains is listed in the coverage file.

A gap means no figure is in our data: either it was never published or we haven't found or read it yet. Charts leave gaps open rather than drawing across them.
