A Second Home Visa is a long-term residence visa that allows foreigners to live in another country as their secondary home without becoming citizens.
It is usually designed for retirees, investors, remote workers, and families who want to stay long-term, enjoy local lifestyle benefits, and travel in and out freely. The visa often comes with multiple-entry access, long validity (several years), and may allow property rental or ownership, depending on the country.
Programs like Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) are popular examples of second home visas.
