Secure Your FIV Visa the Right Way: Safely and Strategically
Why a Stable Investment Matters for Your FIV Visa
When applying for the Freeport Area of Bataan (FAB) Investor Visa (FIV) in the Philippines, it’s essential to understand that the USD 75,000 investment is not just a one-time requirement — it must be maintained continuously. FAB authorities conduct annual compliance reviews, and if your investment drops below the required threshold, your visa could be at risk.
Hidden Risks in Real Estate and Private Ventures
Real Estate:
Buying property may feel like a secure option, but real estate markets fluctuate. If you purchase a unit worth USD 75,000 and its market value later declines, FAB may no longer consider your investment sufficient — putting your residency at risk. Additionally, some developments may inflate prices to meet FIV requirements, but these properties often struggle to retain value, making resale difficult and increasing the risk of financial loss.
Startups and Private Businesses:
Investing in early-stage companies or private businesses comes with high risk and no guarantees. These ventures may not provide the stability or valuation required to keep your investment compliant, potentially jeopardizing your visa eligibility.
Why iWave Is the Smarter Investment Choice
Backed by DFNN:
iWave is a subsidiary of DFNN, one of the Philippines’ largest publicly listed IT companies.

Fixed Investment Value — Guaranteed:
Unlike volatile markets, your investment with iWave is locked in at USD 75,000 — ensuring continuous compliance with FAB rules and eliminating concerns over fluctuating values.
