country that usually does not permit dual citizenship, such as Austria, Germany, Japan or South Korea) can apply for the "Blue Card" (mavi kart), which gives them some citizens' rights back, e.g. the right to live and work in Turkey, the right to possess land or the right to inherit, but not the right to vote. Some countries have made treaties regulating travel and access to the job markets (non-government/non-military-related work): A citizen of an EU country can live and work indefinitely in other EU countries and in Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland (and citizens of these countries can live and work in EU countries). The Trans-Tasman Travel Arrangement between Australia and New Zealand allows citizens of the two countries to live and work in the other country. A citizen of a Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member state (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates) can live and work in other member states. However, for voting, being voted and working for the public sector or the national security in a country, citizenship of the country concerned is almost always required. Golden visas A "golden visa" is a permanent residency visa issued to individuals who invest, often through the purchase of property, a certain sum of money into the issuing country. Dating back to the 1980s, golden visas became much more popular and available in the 21st century. Golden visas require investments of anywhere from $100,000 in Dominica up to £2,000,000 in the UK. The most common method for obtaining a golden visa is through the purchase of real estate with a minimum value. Some countries such as Cyprus and Malta also offer "golden passports" (citizenship) to individuals if they invest a certain sum. The issuing of so-called "golden visas" has sparked controversy in several countries. Limitations of permanent residents Depending on the country, permanent residents usually have the same rights as citizens except for the following: They may not vote (though in some cases such as the UK's Commonwealth citizens, and in New Zealand voting is allowed). They may not stand for public office (except European Union citizens permanently residing in other EU member states who may stand in local and European elections). In most cases, they may not hold public sector employment. Canada and New Zealand allow this; some countries, such as Brazil and Portugal, allow it only for permanent residents holding citizenship of another
