Step-by-Step Guide to Getting TRC in Azerbaijan Through Real Estate Investment
When you buy property worth 100,000 AZN, whether it is a villa or a land house or an apartment, it does not matter. That means you need to buy a minimum 100,000 AZN property. As soon as you buy the property, after buying it there are some legal issues. Whether the property you are buying from a local person, does he make an agreement with the farmer? Yes. There is a new institution here. Agreements are also notarized in easy service. In normal areas, meaning in the city there are notary offices everywhere. Both parties go there. The person from whom you are buying the property brings his house documents. By house documents it means what we call registry there. But here it is called Extract.
The owner takes his Extract and goes to the notary office. They check there whether he has taken any money by mortgaging it in a bank, whether there is any legal issue inside it. The notary officer checks all the documents. After checking, he gives you go ahead that the property is completely safe and secure and you can buy it.
As soon as you buy the property, the most important thing is where do you deposit this money? Your money is very safe. There is a bank inside the notary itself. You have to deposit that money in the government bank. As soon as you deposit the money there, you receive proof of deposit.
After that, both parties go again to the officer and a sale-purchase agreement is prepared. You cannot do this alone; a translator or legal institution is required to avoid fraud or loss. After the agreement, ownership is transferred to your name, and within 15 days you receive official property documents in your name. You become the legal owner for life.
How TRC Leads to PR and Citizenship in Azerbaijan: Complete Residency Process Explained
This is an interesting thing that as long as you stay in Azerbaijan, you can get your TRC on its basis. You need one-year TRC, then renew it for another one year. After completing 2 years TRC, you become eligible for PR.
For PR, you must pass a basic language test. If you do not pass it, you cannot get PR. Minimum understanding of 40% language is required. Questions are mostly about Azerbaijan and basic topics. After passing, you receive PR.
After PR, citizenship is still not immediate. You need another step of PR renewal. After that, you become eligible to apply for passport and nationality. Approval may take 6 months to 2–3 years depending on file processing. After approval, you can get citizenship and passport.
Benefits of Azerbaijan Property Investment: Family Residency, Rental Income, and Legal Advantages
Many friends ask whether they can travel to other countries on TRC, move to Schengen, or shift their family. Yes, you can shift your family to Europe with you. After minimum 8 months of residency, you can apply for Schengen visa and may get European visa approval.
