This page offers a high-level overview of the different types of visas and pathways to immigration that countries offer. It is designed to help you narrow down the list of options, depending on your situation.
This table does not list "family route" (i.e. "residency by marriage") options. Most countries offer some form of this, but access to that will be highly dependent on your personal life circumstances.
