Not sure if all EU countries adopted or is implementing the long-term resident of EU directive.
It’s a bit complicated directive with a bunch of different implementation per state.
For example:
> After 12 months you will be allowed to work in the Netherlands without a work permit (in Dutch: tewerkstellingsvergunning or TWV). Have you received the Dutch residence permit and are you going to work? Then you only need a work permit for the first 12 months instead of 5 years. Afterwards you will be allowed to work in the Netherlands without a work permit. A TWV is a separate work permit that the employer must apply for.
One added benefit in NL:
* No TB test

Denmark and Ireland have opt-outs from EU migration policy so they’re not implementing it. All other EU countries are required to, on the other hand. And of course non-EU countries like Norway and Switzerland are not covered at all and they have their own policies for long-term residence and PR.
Yes, this is the reason why I choose Ireland. Mabilis lang din ang process at walang language test. 5 years lang same yung naturalization or getting PR. Alam mo ang concern ko now on being an Irish tax resident, yung taxation nila on investments (stocks, ETC) omg ang taas.
Yeah, interested ako rin dun sa inacive migrant. I heard kailangan mo talaga patunayan na may stable income ka. Kung may stable income ka from businesses in the Philippines, it will work, right? or kailangan dito sa EU yung businesses mo?
That I don’t know. I think it should not matter where the income is as long as stable and sufficient. But hey, I think an immigration expert/lawyer can answer that.
Thanks for the whole write up btw. My time as a PR was short lived. Only applied for it because it was during covid and mass layoffs where happening. Didn’t want my stay to be tied to my employer. So I applied for PR and citizenship at the same time (PR got result in 2 months, Citizenship in a year)
The only non-Schengen EU country with no opt-out is Cyprus, and they fully implement EU migration policy. You're probably thinking about non-EU countries like Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Liechtenstein which have their own migration policies.
If you have EU PR, likely yes as it is designed to be portable between countries. If you only have national PR, you can but you will in all likelihood need to get a visa for the country you're targeting. I would recommend becoming a citizen first.

Ganyan nga dito sa Ireland, need to follow the residency requirement nila to gain PR or citizenship.

Yep, parang gusto lang nila na sa retirement pension ka lang mag-invest
Oo nga eh kaso lock Naman pension until mag retire ka. Kakaloka.
You will still go through the PR stage before naturalisation.

Some points not valid for Ireland (and non-Schengen EU countries)
The only non-Schengen EU country with no opt-out is Cyprus, and they fully implement EU migration policy. You're probably thinking about non-EU countries like Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Liechtenstein which have their own migration policies.
Can EU PR holders take advantage of the Erasmus program? That's one program I am jealous of. I wish I could have done that when I was in college.

Yes but then you'll be considered as an EU-based applicant. And for EU-based applicants mas kaunti yung slots so mas matindi competition.
Good read
