There is no fixed price programme to report, and that remains the case. Monaco continues to grant the carte de sejour to applicants who show sufficient means, secure housing and a clean record, rather than through a set investment figure.
Coverage in early 2026 restated the core eligibility pillars of housing, finances and a clean criminal record, which signals continuity rather than a new scheme.
Applicants show financial standing, most often through a bank reference letter where the bank sets the deposit it requires, along with proof of accommodation, valid health cover and a clean record. Applicants from outside the European Economic Area normally obtain a French long stay visa first. Confirm the present file requirements with the official authority.
Watch for any change in the deposit levels banks ask for, since these are set by the banks and not by a published official figure, and for any adjustment to processing times. Confirm current expectations with the official authority before you commit.
No. Monaco does not publish a single fixed figure. A Monaco bank sets the deposit it requires for its reference letter. Confirm with the bank and the official authority.
Financial standing, suitable accommodation in Monaco and a clean criminal record, with valid health cover. Applicants from outside the European Economic Area usually obtain a French long stay visa first.
