Immigration Compliance and Residence Permit Documentation
If your goal is to live and run your company in Latvia, the residence permit process must be planned together with your company setup, banking, and tax compliance.

Typical timeline
Processing timelines depend on the chosen route, submission location, and completeness of the file. We focus on reducing delays by ensuring documentation is consistent and compliant from the start.
Common pitfalls we prevent
Choosing the wrong route and rebuilding the file later
Inconsistent company role/ownership information across immigration and corporate documents
Missing supporting documents (subsistence, state duty, background statement)
Late translations/ legalisation leading to missed submission windows
Assuming company registration alone guarantees immigration approval
