Frequently asked questions
Yes. Chile is the only Latin American country in the US Visa Waiver Program — its citizens travel to the US for tourism or business with only an online ESTA registration, no visa and no embassy interview. Citizens of Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and Colombia all apply through the full visa process.
No longer. Chile's immigration law was fundamentally overhauled effective from 2021: residence visas must be applied for from abroad at a Chilean consulate before travelling. Any article advising the old approach describes an abolished system.
A state-backed accelerator providing equity-free funding to foreign founding teams who come to work in Chile for a period. It is startup support with a work visa attached, not a settlement category — but a very practical door for technology people.

Chile is the world's largest copper producer and holds among the largest lithium reserves, beneath the Atacama salt flats. Beyond that: wine, aquaculture especially salmon, off-season fruit exports, forestry, and a rising technology sector in Santiago.
