There is a definitive, step-by-step process in this path to residency.

First, you will be granted a special visa that is valid for 90 days, and during that 90 days you have to get your visa converted to a temporary residence permit. The temporary residence permit is usually valid for 12-18 months, and a further extension of 12- 18 months can be granted provided that the company is progressing.
A permanent residence permit is possible after three years if company still running and in a good financial position. In addition, the residence permit applicant must be able to prove he can pay his personal expenses. If the applicant is over 45 he most also prove that he has enough pension funds or alternative assets.
Entrepreneurs and Business Investors are admitted into Germany, if they invest EUR 100,000 in a German business venture that created atleast five jobs in Germany. Directors, managers, legal representatives of business-partnerships as well as stock corporations are entitled as long as they are not working under an employee-status.
The key to obtaining a German residence permit as an self employed person is showing that the business will have positive effects on the German economy, i.e. that there is an economic interest in or a regional need for the business and that financing has been secured.
There are 6 steps to obtain a residence permit based on the business:
1. Drafting a business plan (We have several business ideas and investment opportunities for Germany)
2. Discussing the business plan with the local Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
3. Application for visa according to § 21 AufenthG.
4. Entry to Germany and registration with the local registration office.

5. Incorporating a company (e.g. foundation of a GmbH).
6. Applying for a residence permit by submitting of all required documents. It should be kept in mind that Germany does not grant visas or residence permits based on real estate investment alone. So this option is NOT available to foreign investors. You have to make a business investment and create jobs to qualify for residency.
