Overview

• The website launched June 11 to let foreign investors join a waitlist for the Trump Gold Card after paying $5 million.
• A $5 million payment secures only a pathway to citizenship and does not confer immediate legal status.
• President Trump has stated the program requires no congressional approval because it offers a process rather than direct citizenship.
• Applicants must indicate one of eight global regions on the online form, including Europe, Asia and Africa.
• The Gold Card is designed to replace the EB-5 investor visa by raising the investment threshold and attracting wealthier participants.
