Are foreigners allowed to own property in Papua New Guinea?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats in Papua New Guinea if foreigners are allowed to own property, they answered...

"Foreigners are allowed to own property in Papua New Guinea, but there are certain restrictions. Foreigners are not allowed to own freehold land, but they can lease land for up to 99 years. Foreigners are also allowed to own buildings and other improvements on the land, but they must obtain a lease from the government. Foreigners are also allowed to own businesses in Papua New Guinea, but they must obtain a business license from the government," remarked another expat who made the move to Papua New Guinea.
