Rentista income-minimum checker

The rentista residency requires stable monthly income from abroad of at least US$1,635.20, or US$2,452.80 with two or more dependents. You must not work in El Salvador on this permit.

A rough check only, not legal advice. The minimum is tied to the minimum wage and can change; confirm with a lawyer. Planning to keep working? Look at self-employed residency instead.
