Traveling to the Schengen Area will be much easier for Maldivians.
We welcome the decision of the European Council to adopt new visa rules that will lead the way for the creation of an online visa application platform for the Schengen Area.

In a few weeks I will be travelling to the Maldives to explore the possibilities for foreign investors in inhabited islands, in local hotels and guesthouses for example.
This is a niche segment where I believe there is plenty of unexplored growth potential.

No, that’s not the intention, I am looking for investors who invest there MONEY in local businesses. So the Maldivians will get easy access to loans to build there businesses. Repay there loans with interest like banks. Growing there businesses will benefit the local Island.
