Europe, with its comprehensive social welfare, abundant educational resources, and beautiful cultural environment, has always been one of the popular destinations for Chinese immigrants.
However, with the increase in the number of immigrants, many European countries have gradually tightened their policies in recent years, such as Malta raising the threshold for immigration and many European countries shutting down investment and property-based immigration.
Does the adjustment of a series of policies mean that the era of easy immigration to Europe has passed?
Not at all!
