Become a TCI Resident

There are several ways or routes to acquire permanent residency through investment. These include investing in a home, business or a designated public sector project.

The TCI also offers Temporary Residence Permits. A Temporary Residence Permit can be obtained from the Employment Services Department for those interested in residing in the islands without the right to work for a limited period of time, generally up to one year. Spouses and dependents up to age 18 can be endorsed on a TRP.
