🇹🇴 Tonga · Permanent residence
Boundary between renewable long-term permits and permanent residence
Tonga's public employment, business and Assured Income permits can support long-term or renewable residence, but the public visa directory does not list a general time-based automatic permanent-residence route for ordinary employment or investment. The Residency Visa category is separately limited by ancestry, former citizenship or marriage to a citizen.
