Belize’s Qualified Retired Persons (QRP) Program
The Qualified Retired Persons Program was created for people forty-five years of age or older who wish to retire in Belize. The program is very simple compared to other jurisdictions in the Caribbean and Central America that offer similar programs where requirements are more demanding. Applicants are required to provide an authentic police record from their last place of residency; certified copy of birth certificate and passport; certify and sign an agreement that the applicant is in receipt of a minimum income of US$2,000 monthly (US$24,000 annually) from abroad; and a medical clearance certificate. A qualified applicant can also include his or her dependents such as a spouse and children under the age of eighteen.
