TheTrump Gold Card is proposed type ofinvestor visa leading to aresidency permit for theUnited States, announced byUnited States presidentDonald Trump, that would allow investors a fast track path to residency and citizenship if they donate at least $1 millionUSD to the government.[1]
On June 12, 2025, Trump posted onTruth Social that "more than fifteen thousand have signed up and joined the Waiting List."[2] By June 16, Commerce SecretaryHoward Lutnick announced that almost 70,000 people had joined the waitlist.[3]
Policy experts have argued that similar programs have been attempted in other countries, such as Spain, Malta, and the UK, but have been ended due to concerns on increased housing costs, issues of national security, and money laundering.[4]
On September 19, 2025, Trump signedExecutive Order 14351, directing theSecretary of Commerce to establish the Gold Card. A donation to theDepartment of Commerce of $1 million for an individual, or $2 million for a corporation or on behalf of a person is required to establish eligibility for the Gold Card.[5][6]
The proposedTrump Platinum Card would allow holders to spend up to 270 days in the United States without being liable forfederal income tax on income earned outside the US.[1] The September 2025 executive order did not mention the Platinum Card.[1] There areconstitutional questions about the executive authority for this kind of change to immigration and tax law without express approval from theUS Congress. It is unclear what would happen to the US federal taxability of a Gold Card holder's non-US income if the holder becomes aUS citizen.[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][excessive citations]
