The Bahamas' Flag
To apply for a permanent visa takes some time. Major international investors and owners of residences valued at $1.5 million or more receive speedy consideration for permanent residency permits. Applicants must be of good character, show evidence of financial support and commit in writing they wish to live permanently in the Bahamas. Wives and dependent children (under 18 years) usually resident in a household may be endorsed on the certificate when the original application is made.
