What is the current status of residency by investment options for foreigners in the Netherlands?

Has the Dutch government published new rules about its plans to end its residency by investment options for investors by the end of this year? Can foreigners still invest around 1.25 million euros in a Dutch company or an approved fund to gain legal residency?

    At this point, it is unclear as to when exactly the residency by investment scheme for the Netherlands will be discontinued. Earlier, the Dutch government announced that this residency scheme will be discontinued in the second half of 2021, but there is no further information about the date on which this will take into effect. As long as the residency by investment scheme is still in place, applications can be submitted on the basis of an investment of 1.25 million euros in, for example, a Dutch company or an approved fund.
