CORVUS Attorneys-at-Law · Riga
A Latvian Residence Permit, Handled by Attorneys
Latvia remains one of the most accessible doors into EU residence: a five-year permit for an investment of EUR 100,000 in company capital or EUR 250,000 in property, or an EU Blue Card for qualified specialists with a Latvian job offer — thresholds as of 2026. One short visit per year keeps the investment permit alive; no language exam is required until you choose permanent residence.

We are CORVUS Attorneys-at-Law, a Riga law office. We don't sell investments and we don't promise outcomes — Latvian attorneys lawfully can't. What we do is prepare files the way the authorities expect to see them, and defend them when questions come.
Route 1: Residence by investment
EUR 250,000 in property with full legal title, or EUR 100,000 in share capital — the same five-year permit either way, covering your spouse and children under 18. Closed by law to citizens of Russia and Belarus. → The complete golden visa guide
Route 2: EU Blue Card
For specialists with a Latvian offer at EUR 2,723+ gross monthly (EUR 2,178 for shortage professions, from 1 April 2026) and a degree — or five years of experience instead. Family included, remote work tolerated, open to Russian and Belarusian citizens. → The complete Blue Card guide
Further: permanent residence and citizenship
After five years of actual residence, an A2 language exam and an income test, the status stops depending on your investment — and the road to a Latvian passport opens. → The PR and citizenship guide
