Latvia offers a renewable residence permit to qualifying investors. It is open to third country nationals, including citizens of Brazil. This page explains the routes, the indicative thresholds and where to confirm the current rules.
Information, not advice. Figures are indicative and current as of June 2026. Always confirm the present rules with the official program authority and a licensed professional before you act.
Brazilian citizens are not excluded from the Latvian residence by investment route. Eligibility depends on which qualifying investment you make rather than on nationality, so a Brazilian applicant is assessed against the same published criteria as other third country applicants.
Applicants must hold sufficient funds for living costs and pass background checks. Confirm the documents and proof of funds that apply to your case with the official authority before you commit money.
Published routes have included a real estate purchase at a qualifying value, an investment in the share capital of a Latvian company that meets tax conditions, a fixed term bank deposit and a holding of government bonds. State fees apply on top of the investment.
Each route carries its own evidence and ongoing conditions. Check which one fits your situation with the authority, since amounts and conditions can change.
Processing commonly takes a small number of months from a complete filing, but timing depends on documentation. Confirm the current expected timeline with the official authority.
Minimum investments, state fees and the required maintenance funds are set by the authority and can change. The figures below are indicative only and should be verified before you act.
