GoodbyeMatrix Residency Index

Sets 2 to 5 programmes of the index side by side: type, country, minimum amount, physical presence, time to permanent residency and to citizenship, path to citizenship, dual citizenship, tax system of the country, visa-free destinations and the programme page in German and English, plus the date of the source and consultationNote. Read-only: it only retrieves and computes from the GoodbyeMatrix data set, stores nothing, sends nothing and calls no external services.

compare_programs

Use only when the user explicitly asks to speak with GoodbyeMatrix. Returns the URL of the GoodbyeMatrix consultation page (German or English) and the topics a call covers. The link carries no personal data. Read-only: it returns a URL only; nothing is sent, booked or stored.

request_consultation_link

Explains a term on relocation, residency, citizenship, tax and asset protection from the GoodbyeMatrix glossary (more than 120 terms, for example golden visa, 183-day rule, tax residency certificate, flag theory) with the glossary page in German and English. The definition is returned in the requested language (English or German); a term without an English entry yet comes with the German definition and a note. Related terms are listed when the search term matches several entries. Read-only: it only retrieves and computes from the GoodbyeMatrix data set, stores nothing, sends nothing and calls no external services.

explain_term

Answers how much citizenship by investment or a second passport costs for a person or family, or compares programmes by total cost. Calculates the indicative cost for a family: government contribution, investment, fees, professional fees, payment phases and total in USD, plus which family members are eligible, processing time, page links and quoteRequestUrl. With one programme it returns that programme; without program it compares all 9 programmes (St Kitts and Nevis, Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, Saint Lucia, Vanuatu, Sao Tome and Principe, Nauru, Argentina). Figures are rounded indicative figures (total to the nearest 1,000 USD), binding only after a pre-check; the user receives the exact amounts by requesting the cost breakdown through quoteRequestUrl. Read-only: it only retrieves and computes from the GoodbyeMatrix data set, stores nothing, sends nothing and calls no external services.

get_cbi_quote

Returns only the personal link (quoteRequestUrl) for one programme and family: the calculator page on goodbyematrix.com with the family already filled in, where the user requests the detailed cost breakdown with the exact amounts by e-mail from the GoodbyeMatrix team. The link carries the family only, never contact details; the user enters their contact details on that page, checks them and sends the request personally; the privacy consent is never preselected. Read-only: it returns a URL only; nothing is sent, booked or stored.

request_cost_breakdown_link

Summarises a country for moving abroad: tax system (residence-based, territorial, no income tax, remittance basis or citizenship-based), the residency and citizenship by investment programmes of the index in that country with their programme pages, and the GoodbyeMatrix climate map, plus the date of the source and consultationNote. Covers about 200 countries. Read-only: it only retrieves and computes from the GoodbyeMatrix data set, stores nothing, sends nothing and calls no external services.

get_country_overview

Returns one programme of the index in detail. Residency programmes: minimum amount and investment options, physical presence, time to permanent residency and to citizenship, dual citizenship, settlement area, tax system of the country, steps and excerpts of the GoodbyeMatrix programme texts (overview, qualification, costs, benefits, citizenship timeline, legal basis). Citizenship by investment programmes: routes with starting amounts, visa-free destinations, status (cost calculator, on request, coming soon or closed) and official links. Includes the programme page in German and English, the date of the source and consultationNote. Read-only: it only retrieves and computes from the GoodbyeMatrix data set, stores nothing, sends nothing and calls no external services.

get_program

For questions about which citizenship by investment (second passport) programmes exist or what they start from: lists the 9 programmes GoodbyeMatrix prices (St Kitts and Nevis, Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, Saint Lucia, Vanuatu, Sao Tome and Principe, Nauru, Argentina) with region, route (contribution, investment or both), starting amount in USD for a single applicant, professional fee label, processing time, number of visa-free destinations where known, calculator and programme page links, and short notes. Read-only: it only retrieves and computes from the GoodbyeMatrix data set, stores nothing, sends nothing and calls no external services.
