Program Overview

Known as “The Garden Province”, Prince Edward Island (PEI) is one of Canada’s four Atlantic provinces. It is the smallest and least populated province in Canada, and is famous for its natural beauty.

The PEI Entrepreneur Immigration stream targets experienced business owners and senior managers who are ready to establish, operate, and manage a business while settling permanently in Prince Edward Island. This is an ideal place to study, live, work, and raise a family. PEI offers rewarding career opportunities and a supportive business community for entrepreneurs.

Applicants must propose an investment plan and directly manage an eligible business in PEI. They must also meet all criteria to be nominated by the province.
