  • The investment amount should be in a registered company in Ireland, regulated and approved by the Central Bank of Ireland.

What Our Clients Say

“My wife and I wanted a long-term option for our sons who were interested in studying and finding employment in the United States. Nysa helped us achieve our objectives by facilitating an expedited approval into the American EB-5 program. Today our boys have completed undergraduate schooling, have begun their careers and are enjoying the American dream.”
EB-5USA
“My cousin and I were interested to get Green Cards in the United States. Nysa helped us strategize an approach in such a way that we could invest in our uncle’s business in Arizona, build a hotel and a quick service restaurant that we could run ourselves, and get Green Cards along the way. Nysa even helped us write our business plan.”
EB-5USA
“As a single woman, I wanted to start a yoga and vegetarian restaurant business in the south of France. Nysa suggested the Portugal Golden Visa program as the best possible route since it leads ultimately to European citizenship and is the least expensive and time consuming of the various options. Approval in hand, I’m excited to start my European adventure.”

“My family owns an auto dealership in Gurgaon. For a variety of reasons, we wanted to establish a base in London to grow various aspects of the enterprise. Nysa suggested we establish a representative office which ultimately brings with it permanent residency in the UK for the actual company representative. It’s a perfect solution for our business and, as an added bonus, our granddaughter will soon start school in London.”

“My wife and I manufacture and market home delivery vegetarian dietary supplements in Bangalore. We were very much interested to expand our business to Europe. So, when Nysa suggested we enroll in the Start Up Ireland program, it was an easy decision. We can bring our product and service line to the European market and at the same time enjoy all the lifestyle advantages Ireland has to offer like health care, free quality education for our children, and a pollution free environment.”
