Direct answer

You may qualify if you can deposit USD 200,000 into a GPFCA, obtain police clearance from your country of domicile within six months of applying, and pass a medical examination at an authorised local hospital. Age, nationality and residence are captured through the application forms; banks additionally verify your source of funds. Meeting the published requirements does not guarantee approval; every application passes a government security clearance and the final decision rests with the Department of Immigration and Emigration.

In practice the criteria break down into: available capital (the deposit), clean documentation (passport, forms, certificates with certified translations where needed), clearances (police and security), health (the specified medical screening for all applicants), and, for families, civil status documents for the spouse and dependants.

The self-assessment below compares your situation with the published criteria. It never claims approval, collects no passport numbers or health details, and stores nothing on our servers.

Your nationality

This self-assessment compares your answers with published criteria only. It does not collect passport numbers or health information, does not store your answers after you leave the page, and can never confirm approval. That decision rests with the Department of Immigration and Emigration.
