| Overview | Grenada is a Caribbean jurisdiction with a Citizenship by Investment programme that uniquely supports US E-2 treaty access. Bordercase coordinates with authorised local agents. | Uruguay is a stable South American jurisdiction with structured residency routes, strong civil infrastructure, and notable second-residence appeal for HNW relocators. Bordercase coordinates with licensed Uruguayan partners. | The United Arab Emirates is one of the most active jurisdictions for cross-border founders, remote professionals, and family relocations. It offers a wide menu of residency and company structures - federal mainland, free zone, and offshore - each with different banking, substance, and timeline implications. | Serbia is an attractive non-EU European jurisdiction for founders, IT professionals, and remote workers - with accessible residency and competitive costs. Bordercase coordinates with licensed Serbian partners for filings. |

| Residency | Grenada routes:
| Uruguayan residency routes:
| Common UAE residency routes:
Quotas, thresholds, and route definitions are revised frequently and vary by emirate. | Serbian residency routes:
Permanent residence typically after 3 years of continuous temporary residence. |
| Company setup | Domestic companies and IBCs are common in international structures. | SAS and SA are common structures. DGI tax registration and BPS social-security registration follow. | Mainland LLCs allow trade across the UAE and government contracts; free-zone companies (DMCC, IFZA, RAKEZ, ADGM, DIFC, and others) suit international service businesses; offshore companies are limited to holding structures. Bordercase coordinates with licensed corporate-services partners in each free zone and mainland. | DOO (limited liability) is the standard structure. Formation is well-documented, with online steps available. Tax registration (PIB) and APR (Business Registers Agency) registration follow. |
| Banking | Banking is selective. Bordercase coordinates banking introductions through current partners. | Residency unlocks personal banking. Uruguay has historically been a HNW banking destination in the region; standards have tightened materially. | Personal and corporate accounts in the UAE require thorough KYC, substance evidence, and clear source of funds. Bordercase prepares the documentation pack and introduces vetted banks and EMIs; final approval is the bank's discretion. | Personal and corporate banking for residents is broadly accessible. Source-of-funds documentation matters for non-standard cases. Bordercase coordinates banking introductions. |
| Family | CBI can include qualifying dependents. | Family reunification is supported. Schools (public, private, bilingual, international) are concentrated in Montevideo and Punta del Este. | Dependants - spouse, children, and in some cases parents - can be sponsored under most residency permits. Schooling, dependent insurance, and Emirates ID processes typically follow the main applicant's residency. | Family reunification is supported. International schools (English, French, Russian) are available in Belgrade. |
