Making Filipinos’ European residency dreams a deality: The success stories from Golden Visa Centrale and Arish Capital Partners 

Manila, Philippines, 21 June 2024– In recent years, an increasing number of Filipinos have set
their sights on moving out of their country. In 2023, the Commission on Filipinos Overseas
(CFO) recorded 96,111 registered emigrants. Filipinos migrate for several reasons including
seeking new opportunities, a higher quality of life, access to better healthcare, and more.
These aspirations have also led many Filipinos to set their sights on migrating to Europe. A
European citizen not only affords all of the benefits mentioned earlier but also makes visa-free
travel possible as European passports are some of the most powerful in the world.


The Golden Visa

Although the process of acquiring European citizenship is daunting, it is very much possible for
Filipinos. One route is to get a Golden Visa, a residency-by-investment program offered by
various countries around the world. It allows individuals and their families to obtain residency
rights and eventual citizenship by making an investment in the host country’s economy. The
term “golden visa” typically refers to the attractive benefits and privileges associated with the
program. The number of golden visa applications coming from the Philippines increased by at
least 30% year-on-year, reflecting a growing interest among Filipinos.


Golden Visa Centrale (GVC), a leading international property marketing consultancy
specializing in residency-by-investment, actually helps Filipinos make their European residency
dreams a reality. Their team of experts along with Arish Captial Partners, a knowledgeable and
innovative solutions provider in Portugal, UK, Spain, Greece and Turkey, offer comprehensive
and personalized assistance, from start to finish and guide you through the process.


Hear from the Golden Visa Centrale Clients Themselves

They have successfully processed and facilitated hundreds of golden visa applications across
various European countries and the U.S. To date, they have over 200 satisfied clients and are
one of the leading providers of the Spain, Greece and Portugal Golden Visa to the Philippines.
Among the Filipinos who have started their Golden Visa journey is John Alonte, owner of
activewear brand 2XU and property developer BREDCO and father of three, who wanted to
ensure that he’s setting up his kids and his future grandchildren not only a bright future but also
the freedom and the opportunity to live anywhere they choose.

For John, the Portugal Golden Visa program is the easiest way to achieve his goal and extend
the privilege to his family. “With a single investment, we gain ease of travel, the option to live or
retire in a better country, and an appreciating asset,” he said.


John chose this program for its unique benefits and flexibility: family residency or citizenship,
owning a European investment asset, and enjoying these perks without the need for continuous
residence. With the help of Golden Visa Centrale, they are progressing steadily. John remains
patient, valuing the experience and privilege of moving, traveling, and living with ease, and
extending these benefits to his family.


Atty. Aldrich and Ava del Rosario, a couple who received their Portuguese residency cards
through the Golden Visa program, do not regret their decision at all and have applied for the
same program for the same reasons. “As a current resident, the best thing about Portugal is the
high quality of life with its excellent healthcare and educational opportunities. It is also ranked
one of the safest countries in the world. Additionally, the country’s warm climate, the friendly
and welcoming Portuguese people, coupled with the widespread use of English, make it easy to
feel at home and integrate into the community,” the couple said.


According to them, there are several reasons why applying for the Golden Visa program is
worthwhile, “Firstly, it provides us with the flexibility to travel freely within the Schengen Area,
enhancing our ability to explore and experience diverse European cultures. Secondly, it allows
us to access superior educational opportunities for our children, enriching their cultural and
intellectual development. Additionally, the Golden Visa program offers a relatively
straightforward path to residency without the need for immediate relocation, which is crucial for
us as business owners in Manila. These benefits collectively ensure a better quality of life and
expanded horizons for our family.”


Ultimately, the program allows the whole family to have access to better opportunities that you
would otherwise not have in the Philippines. For Filipinos looking to broaden their experiences
and secure a better future, the Golden Visa is an excellent choice.


Golden Visa Centrale’s Role
The process may be long but when backed by a team of international property marketers
specializing in Golden Visa properties and residency by investment, the application process will
also run smoothly. John testified to this when he shared his experience working with Golden
Visa Centrale, “Their specific product offering and personal hands-on assistance in the entire
process has been remarkable.”


When asked how Golden Visa Centrale has helped them in their European residency goals,
Atty. Aldrich and Ava del Rosario said, “They provided us expert guidance on navigating the

process, including selecting the right real estate investments to meet the program’s
requirements. Their comprehensive support included handling documentation, ensuring
compliance with regulations, and coordinating with local authorities. Despite the global
disruptions, the agency’s professionalism and local expertise made the journey smooth and
stress-free, allowing us to achieve our residency goals efficiently.”
