Freeport Area of BataanUnderstand the FAB investor visa

The FAB investor framework provides a residence route linked to investment in a qualifying enterprise. A specific investment needs its own due diligence before it belongs in your relocation plan.

Who should consider it

For an investor evaluating a qualifying enterprise within the Freeport Area of Bataan and willing to assess both investment and residence conditions.

A statutory investment threshold

Republic Act 11453 provides for an investor visa for eligible applicants at least 18 years old who invest at least $75,000 in cash or equipment in a FAB-registered enterprise.

Continuing conditions apply

The investment must be maintained and reported annually. Withdrawal of the qualifying investment affects the visa.

Review the specific offer

The law does not establish the quality, liquidity or suitability of any particular investment. Verify the operator, instrument, fees, redemption rights and compensation arrangements separately.

Prepare for an assessment

  • The named enterprise and complete proposed investment terms
  • Nationality, household details and existing immigration status
  • Independent legal, tax and investment questions

Begin with a short summary. Do not send passports, account statements, medical records or source-of-funds documents through the inquiry form.

A sensible sequence

  1. Check whether the underlying enterprise and investment qualify with the Authority of the Freeport Area of Bataan.
  2. Review the investment risks, agreements and total fees with your advisers.
  3. Confirm the current visa procedure and professional responsibilities.
  4. Agree a coordination scope only after the route and provider have been verified.
