Before valuation
Important property-residence questions.
Is the purchase price enough?+
No. The statutory route relies on market value established through the required certified assessment.
Can agricultural land qualify?+
The short-term property route described by the SDA excludes agricultural land.
Does buying property guarantee approval?+
No. Ownership and value are core requirements, but the entire application and general legal conditions are assessed by the authority.
Can family apply at the same time?+
The SDA describes spouse and children applying through the holder’s short-term permit. We sequence the principal and family files according to current procedure.
Is the card included?+
No. Residence approval and issuance of the physical residence card/address registration are separate stages.
