IIP Endowment

The Irish Government created the Immigrant Investor Program to facilitate investors and business professionals from outside of the EU to avail of the opportunities of investing and locating business interests in Ireland in order to support investment in Ireland and to enhance Ireland’s position as one of the world’s most globalized economies. 

There are four steps to the Immigrant Investor Program – 1) Apply, 2) Approve, 3) Invest, 4) Reside 

A minimum Endowment of €500,000 in a project of public benefit in the arts, sports, health, cultural or educational field. Where a group of five or more investors wish to combine their philanthropic endowments to contribute to an appropriate project, a minimum investment of €400,000 per investor will qualify under the Program.

The endowment option will facilitate investors who wish to actively engage in philanthropy and who wish to champion projects that benefit the public at large.  It is the most straightforward option and once the endowment is made no further financial obligation is required under the Immigrant Investor Program
