The Trump Gold Card Program Is Now Live: Applications Officially Open

The U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security have officially begun accepting applications for the Trump Gold Card, marking a significant new pathway for foreign investors seeking lawful permanent residency in the United States.


The Trump Gold Card is designed for foreign nationals who are willing and able to invest $1 million with the U.S. government. Applicants will undergo a thorough vetting process, and upon approval, will be issued lawful permanent residency in the United States. An administrative fee is required at the time of application and varies based on the number of family members included. After approval, the applicant will then facilitate the $1 million investment.


Overview of the Trump Gold Card Requirements

$1 Million Investment

Applicants must commit to a $1 million investment with the U.S. government. This payment is made only after the applicant has passed the vetting and approval process.

Comprehensive Background Review

Federal agencies will conduct a full security and background check to ensure all applicants meet eligibility standards.

Lawful Permanent Residency

Upon approval and completion of the investment, applicants and qualifying family members will receive lawful permanent resident status.

Administrative Application Fee

An administrative fee is charged at the time of application. The total fee depends on the number of individuals included under the primary applicant.
