Europe - Visa by Residency
What is a residence visa in Europe?
This is a special long-term visa that gives its owner the right to stay on the territory of the state for a long time, as well as the ability to cross the border an unlimited number of times without additional bureaucratic red tape.

In terms of the sum of rights and obligations, the holder of permanent residence is equated to a citizen of the country, the only difference is that he cannot hold elective and state positions, as well as vote in elections.
Which European country to choose for immigration
