Direction No. 11 - Inward Investment and Approved Status and Outward Investment
The Central Bank of Belize issued Direction No. 11/2014 to regulate inward direct and portfolio investments by non-residents and all outward investments by residents. The directive encourages direct investment by granting Approved Status for capital repatriation while requiring prior written permission for portfolio investments and specific Central Bank approval for overseas transfers. Applicants must submit detailed financial and operational data via an appendix questionnaire to secure Approved Status for their local entities or branches.
