Pathway overview
For financially independent non-EU nationals living on passive income (pensions, investments, rental income), not active work.
Verified via WebSearch, cross-referenced across multiple independent sources: you need passive income of at least €920/month (€11,040/year, the 2026 threshold — pensions, transferable equity, real estate, intellectual property, or similar financial sources, not earnings from active work), valid health insurance for the duration of your stay, and a clean criminal record. This amount rises 50% for a spouse and 30% for each dependent child — this checker verifies the single-applicant floor only. Often referred to as a retirement visa, but there's no age requirement; consulates look for stable, regular income, not just the bare legal minimum.
