Why so low?
The programme reduced its stay requirements so that investors still running businesses in Asia can take part.
How to plan
- Family holidays: for example during school breaks.
- Business visits: to see investments or explore the market.
- Several visits: the days need not be consecutive.
Keeping records
- Keep all travel records.
- Check your running total regularly.
- Don’t discover a shortfall near the end.
Family
Your spouse and dependent children receive resident visas too, so plan stays around family travel.
Common mistakes
- Assuming you can make up all the days in the final year
- Overlooking how arrival and departure days are counted
- Not keeping complete records
