The risks of setting up independently: moving to Monaco without support exposes you to numerous pitfalls: incomplete applications rejected by the authorities, unsuitable real estate choices, bank account openings compromised by a lack of knowledge of KYC requirements, or costly administrative delays. These mistakes can permanently compromise your relocation plans.
The little-known complexity of procedures: Monegasque legislation has subtleties that only local expertise can fully master. Procedures change regularly, acceptance criteria vary depending on profiles, and processing times depend on multiple technical factors. A self-taught approach increases the risk of failure.
The Monegasque professional ecosystem: The Monegasque market operates on the basis of established relationships and closed professional networks. Accessing the right contacts, understanding local codes, and identifying relevant opportunities requires in-depth knowledge of this specific environment.
The added value of expert advice: our support saves you months of work, prevents costly mistakes, and maximizes your chances of success. Beyond the technical aspects, we give you peace of mind with a project that is managed from start to finish, with the guarantee of an installation that is compliant and optimized for your profile.
An investment that pays off: the cost of support represents a fraction of the financial stakes involved in your installation. Faced with the risks of rejection, delays, or strategic errors, our expertise is a secure investment that preserves the long-term value of your project.
To obtain a residence permit, you must provide proof of accommodation in Monaco (owned or rented), sufficient and stable resources, and a clean criminal record. The process can take several months. We will assist you in putting together your application and following up on your request.
A complete installation generally takes between 6 and 12 months, depending on the complexity of your project. The time frame depends on obtaining a residence permit, the need to obtain a visa in some cases, finding a property, and completing banking procedures. Our support helps to optimize these time frames.
Monegasque banks generally require: a residence permit or an application in progress, proof of substantial income, existing assets, and compliance with KYC (know your customer) requirements. Our banking network facilitates these procedures.
Authorities and banks generally expect significant annual income and substantial assets. The criteria vary depending on your situation (entrepreneur, retiree, investor). We assess your profile to maximize your chances of acceptance.
The Monegasque real estate market is very specific, with limited supply and high prices. We assist you in defining your criteria and pre-selecting properties with the real estate agency. Our knowledge of the market saves you time and maximizes your chances of finding the ideal property.
Monaco offers very advantageous tax conditions: no income tax for individuals (except for French nationals), simplified corporate taxation, and no inheritance tax between spouses and direct descendants.
