What are the requirements for emigrating to Britain, Canada or Denmark?

In recent years, British immigrants have become the choice of more people. In order to improve the quality of immigrants, Britain's new immigration policy changes every year. If you want to get a British immigrant visa, you need to meet some standard requirements. Let's look at the specific situation.

British immigrant visa processing conditions:

According to the provisions of the British immigration regulations, in order to obtain an immigration permit, the following conditions must be met:

1, the wife or fiancee of a British citizen;

2./kloc-children of British citizens under the age of 0/8;

3. Parents of British citizens;

4. Children under the age of 18 adopted by British citizens;

5. People who own 6,543,800+5,000 in the UK;

6. Spouses of foreign nationals, provided that it is proved that the marriage is not for the purpose of obtaining immigrants; Any permanent resident can apply for his parents, spouse or other economically dependent relatives to settle in the UK, and they can stay in the UK indefinitely with the householder.

If they want to obtain the right of independent permanent residents, they must meet the following conditions: in the first four years of living in Britain, they must not leave Britain for more than 90 days; I left England for no more than 90 days last year.

I have worked in Britain for more than five years and have to pay taxes every year. So you are eligible to apply.

Of course, if you can't meet these conditions and want to immigrate to the UK, you can also choose the simplest, easiest and fastest investment immigration project in the UK. This kind of immigration is the need of the times and the development of Britain. In recent years, the British government has finally become sober and wise. They began to accept highly educated and well-funded economic agents to immigrate to Britain. It is undoubtedly an ideal opportunity for those who get rich first in China to invest 6.5438+0000 pounds to immigrate to Britain. As long as you have a working capital of 6.5438+0.5 million pounds (about 6.5438+0.5 million RMB), you can take this quickest and most convenient way to invest and immigrate to the UK. Or your total assets are 2 million pounds, or you can complete the investment immigration by borrowing 6.5438+0.9 million pounds from the British bank. The whole processing cycle is about 3-4 months, and the whole family (children can't be over 18 years old) must enter the UK within 3 months after being signed.

British new immigration policy

In recent years, the number of immigrants to Britain has increased rapidly. This not only puts a burden on British finance, but also puts pressure on the employment of British natives. In order to solve this problem. British Prime Minister David Cameron said that immigration policies, especially family immigration visas, will be further tightened to fundamentally solve such problems.

Cameron said that a survey of 500 cases of family migration showed that 70% of British economic guarantors earned less than 20,000 pounds a year after tax.

He said: "If the income level of the guarantor is low, immigrants and their families will pose a high risk to the British welfare system and taxpayers." Cameron said that he would consider asking immigrants to pay a certain amount of money as a guarantee.

Family migration

Last year, family immigrants accounted for 1/5 of the number of non-EU immigrants in Britain, and the Ministry of the Interior issued about 50,000 visas to relatives with British citizens or permanent residence status.

In addition to higher economic requirements, Cameron also asked relatives who immigrated to Britain to learn English so that they could support themselves.

In addition, the Ministry of the Interior is also considering extending the transition period between marriage immigration and Britain from two years to five years. At the same time, people who immigrate to Britain through "fake marriage" should be strictly controlled.

Cameron said that the phenomenon of fake marriage is serious. "Visa immigration officers often find that people who have just obtained British settlement status quickly apply to their spouses or partners for immigration."

He said: "We can't just sit back and let others abuse our system. Therefore, we must let immigrants wait longer and fully prove that their relationship is true before they can settle down. "

Encourage reporting

Cameron also urged citizens to report people they suspected were illegal immigrants to protect Britain's borders and countries.

He said that people should report illegal immigrants to the crime arresters and the British Border Agency.

"Only in this way can we protect our borders and send illegal immigrants back to their hometown." Cameron said.

Cameron also said that the government is negotiating to criminalize forced marriage in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Immigration is one of the important topics of the Conservative Party led by Cameron. As soon as Cameron took office, he said that he would reduce the number of immigrants outside the EU, hoping to "reduce tens of thousands of immigrants net".

But so far, the effect is not great. 20 10 the year before September, the number of immigrants to Britain reached 242,000, a record high in six years.

Everyone must pay close attention to the new British immigration policy in time. Some requirements of British immigrants are quite reasonable. I hope everyone can meet the requirements as soon as possible and get a British immigrant visa as soon as possible.

Danish immigrants

Denmark is probably one of the few countries in Europe that is most suitable for China enterprises to invest. Denmark is a small, rich country with stable politics and economy. Almost all Danes can speak English. Denmark attaches great importance to human rights, has a good law and order, has no discrimination against China people, and has better protection for China companies to invest. It is located between Central Europe and Northern Europe, at the mouth of the Baltic Sea. When Poland and some Baltic countries are about to join the European Union, Denmark's superior geographical position is even more important.

According to d&; B According to the international investment risk assessment, Denmark was selected as one of the safest countries in Europe. The Danish government welcomes foreign enterprises to invest in Denmark, and all foreign enterprises enjoy the same treatment as local enterprises in Denmark. There is no restriction on the proportion of foreign-invested enterprises. All foreign-funded enterprises and local enterprises enjoy equal rights in the capital market. All enterprises are free to raise funds from abroad, there is no debt ceiling, and all foreign exchange activities are completely unregulated.

Since1early 1990s, foreign investment in Denmark has been increasing continuously. At present, there are about 4,000 foreign enterprises in Denmark, including 12 enterprises in Chinese mainland and Hongkong, and 14 enterprises invested by Taiwanese businessmen.

return of investment

The Danish government provides many investment incentives for certain investments of general enterprises, such as research and development, money-making equipment, staff training and investment cases in specific fields, including:

For new product or new market development, the maximum subsidy is 50%. ※:

Factories and equipment will receive up to 30% cash subsidies. ※:

There is no fixed ratio between hiring and training employees. ※.

Tax system supervision

At present, the corporate income tax rate in Denmark is 30%, with only central taxes and no local taxes, and it is likely to be lowered to 28% in recent years, which is lower than that in the Netherlands (35%+), France (36%), Germany (39%), Belgium (40%) and most other western European countries. Dividends paid by Danish subsidiaries to parent companies are generally exempt from retention tax. As far as the operation of holding companies is concerned, Denmark is the only country in Europe that allows "cross-border profit and loss calculation and tax declaration", that is to say, establishing a parent company with Denmark can combine the losses of subsidiaries in other European countries into the calculation, and the company can save taxes.

In terms of personal income tax, the tax rate in Denmark is very high, ranging from 38% to 59%, plus 9% social insurance. However, managers of foreign companies in Denmark can apply for a reduction, and only need to pay 25% of the levy, which can last for four years, which is the lowest in Western Europe and very beneficial to employees of China enterprises in Europe.

The value-added tax in Denmark is 25%, which is quite high, but this is a tax levied on consumers, and enterprises only collect and pay on their behalf. The Danish company will increase the value-added tax by 25% for the purchased goods. Similarly, for sales projects, Danish companies must increase the value-added tax by 25%. But if it is sold to customers outside Denmark, there is no need to add VAT. Depending on the turnover, it ends every month or quarter, and then it is settled with the Danish State Taxation Bureau. Therefore, value-added tax is only an intermediate tax, which will not pose a burden to enterprises. Generally speaking, the sales amount will be higher than the purchase amount, so the value-added tax on income will be more than the value-added tax paid. For enterprises, the extra VAT income is like a short-term interest-free loan from the Danish government.

Labour market

Denmark provides a rich and high-quality labor market. Of Denmark's 5.3 million people, 2.8 million are employed, accounting for more than half of the total population. If calculated by the above working age group, the employment rate is as high as 80%, which is one of the highest countries in the world. The most important reason is the high employment rate of women, about 75% of whom go out to work.

Denmark thinks that their only natural resource is people, so it attaches great importance to education. Denmark's education budget accounts for 1 1% of the total national budget, which is the second highest in Europe, and higher education accounts for nearly a quarter. Denmark has implemented compulsory national education since 18 14, which is the earliest country in the world. Today, Danish citizens have to receive nine years of compulsory education from the age of seven. Nurseries and kindergartens are voluntary, and about two-thirds of children will participate. After compulsory education, about 82% of teenagers will go on to further their studies, attending three-year high school and five to six-year university education courses. The Danish government emphasizes lifelong learning, and about 60% of the population in the country has received vocational training, so the quality of Denmark's working population is very high. A reference indicator is that 65% of households in Denmark have personal computers and 52% have access to the Internet, which is the highest proportion in the world.

There is no mandatory minimum wage in Danish law, and the wage level is negotiated every two years by two general unions representing labor and management respectively. Employers have complete autonomy and can sign temporary short-term contracts or arrange 24-hour work. There are no restrictions on working hours and maximum overtime hours by law, so the company can arrange the most efficient workflow. Generally speaking, Denmark's labor law is the most flexible among European countries. According to the law, Danish workers currently work 37 hours a week and have five weeks off for the New Year holiday every year.

Direct wages in Denmark are very high, which is generally considered to be very unfavorable for investment. But the biggest difference between Denmark and other European countries is that the social welfare cost of Denmark is borne by Danish nationals themselves, not by enterprises. Therefore, the government's tax revenue mainly comes from individuals, one-third of which comes from goods and value-added tax, 53% comes from personal income tax, and corporate tax only accounts for about 3.7%. In addition to direct wages, Danish employers only need to pay about 1% of social welfare, which is the lowest in Europe. Indirect labor costs in other European countries can be as high as more than one-third of direct wages. Therefore, from the perspective of personnel assembly, the wage level in Denmark is slightly lower than that in the Netherlands, and it is also lower than that in Germany by more than 25%.

Finally, due to the perfect social welfare in Denmark, it is very easy for employers to dismiss employees in Denmark. As long as they act in accordance with the procedures prescribed by law and with the consent of both parties, the employer has the right to directly dismiss employees without the approval of the trade union. According to the length of service of employees, the notice days range from the shortest 1 month to the longest 6 months for employees with more than 9 years. There is no need for extra severance payment and no need to worry about being sued by trade unions. These can be very difficult in other European countries.

production cost

Due to the vast territory and sparse population, the average office rent in Denmark is much lower than that in other big European cities. According to statistics, the average annual rent of office buildings in Copenhagen is DKK 1 0,000-2,000 per square meter, which is about 1 0,000-2,000 per square meter per month. The exchange rate between RMB and krona (the exchange rate between Denmark and RMB is 1 krona = 1 RMB). The factory rent in the industrial zone is 525-750 Danish yuan per square meter per year, which is about 525-750 RMB per ping per month. In jutland, the annual rent of industrial plants is about 300-400 Danish yuan per square meter, which means 300-400 RMB per ping per month. Generally speaking, the office rent in Denmark is 30% lower than that in Stockholm, only half that in Berlin and equivalent to that in Madrid.

Denmark's communication construction is very complete, and it may be one of the countries with the best communication infrastructure in the world. Denmark not only has a 100% digital telephone system, but also has a very high broadband network penetration rate. According to OECD data, its communication cost is one of the cheapest countries in Europe. The electricity charge in Denmark is about 0/.25 Danish kroner per kWh/kloc, and the electricity consumption for household and industry is the same. Electricity in Denmark is provided by regional power companies. These power companies were originally the same state-owned company. After privatization, they became independent regional companies and non-profit organizations under the supervision of the government.

Bonded regulations

Denmark is a member of the European Union, so the import tariff rate is exactly the same as that of other EU member countries, and the relevant bonded regulations in Denmark may be looser than those in all other countries.

Establish a stronghold

Foreign enterprises wishing to engage in business activities in Denmark for a long time can apply to set up a company in Denmark. To set up a company in Denmark, you need to register with the Business Department of the Danish Ministry of Industry and Commerce. There is no handling fee for company registration, no capital tax and no annual visa fee or any fees in the future. The main forms of Danish companies are:

1, Limited by Share Ltd

To set up a joint stock limited company in Denmark, the minimum registered capital is 500,000 Danish dollars (about 5,456,438 yuan +0.300 yuan), and it is necessary to set up a board of directors of more than three people, at least one of whom is a Danish or EU citizen. A joint stock limited company needs to apply for a VAT tax number. Shares of a joint stock limited company may apply for public trading in the securities market.

2. Limited company

In a limited company in Denmark, the minimum registered capital is 1.25 million yuan (about RMB 1.36. 403 yuan), but depending on the registered capital, the board of directors may not be established. Limited companies also need to apply for the VAT tax number, and also need to declare the financial report every year, but it can be owned by foreigners 100%.

3. Branches of foreign enterprises

Foreign enterprises can apply to set up branches in Denmark, but enterprises from countries outside the EU need to apply to the Danish Ministry of Industry and Commerce. China's subsidiaries in other EU countries can set up branches in Denmark.

4. Representative or liaison office

If the arrangement is non-permanent, foreign enterprises can set up representatives or liaison offices in Denmark to take charge of non-business work. This kind of office has no legal person status, no tax requirements and no registration.

It usually takes about 4-6 weeks to set up a company in Denmark. In order to shorten the time, many companies will choose to buy "shelf companies". A shelf company refers to a company that has been registered but has never engaged in any commercial activities at all. Changing the company name and articles of association can be completed in one day, which is more convenient for people in a hurry.
