Moving Guide
Official materials
Próspera has decent official materials on this topic:
- FAQ.
- Immigration Guide on the various kinds of visas.
Generic advice
This is the stuff that’s the same regardless of country.
Finding a place to live
You have 2 main options:
Living inside Próspera
There are a few planned residential buildings on the island:
- Duna residences are in construction, mostly done?
- Beyabu/Pristine Heights residences are planned but not started yet
In addition, there are a handful of houses that were part of Pristine Bay that were for sale as of November 2021 (current status unknown).
Living on Roatán outside Próspera
This needs to be double checked
You can technically live outside of Próspera and still count as being a resident (as opposed to one of Honduras in general), by working in Próspera.
Getting your immigration paperwork in order
Going to plug the Próspera Immigration Guide again and maybe How can I establish domicile in Próspera ZEDE?. There are quite a few different kinds of visas available, though all involve interacting with the central government, which may be challenging, and they all require the involvement of an Honduran attorney. The amounts listed for income requirements are monthly amounts.
It’s worth noting that the rentier visa, while it doesn’t allow remunerated employment, allows starting a business in Próspera.
It is possible to change residency type while being in the country without having to leave it first. So it’s possible to start out under the rentier visa and later change it to another.
Emigration
Depending on your home country, there may be paperwork and taxes associated with leaving the country. This can vary substantially by country so each one should probably get its own page:
Getting a physical residency
Cost is $1300 USD per year for non-Hondurans, $260 for Honduran citizens.
Shipping your stuff
While there is an official answer on this topic it doesn’t mention any actual companies. More research required.
