    Citizenship by Investment

Overview

Citizenship by investment is a statutory grant of nationality in return for a published contribution to the state, or an approved real-estate or business investment. The outcome is a passport. The family is included on the same application where the law allows.

These programmes do not ask the applicant to live in the country for years before the oath. Diligence is done on the person and on the money. The unit that administers the programme — a government citizenship unit, or a committee — approves the file, the investment is paid, and the passport is issued.

A second nationality is a planning instrument. It is travel, succession, and a second place to stand. It is not a replacement for the residence programmes in Europe; some families hold both.

Who these programmes serve

Families who want a second passport on a timetable of months. Investors who need visa-free access that their current nationality does not give. Households that want a nationality which children can inherit.
Applicants who already hold residence elsewhere and want citizenship as a separate line of planning.

The investment routes you will see

  • A non-refundable contribution to a government fund — Grenada, Dominica, Antigua and Barbuda, Saint Kitts and Nevis, São Tomé and Príncipe.
  • Approved real estate, held for a statutory number of years — the same Caribbean programmes, and Türkiye.
  • A business investment — Antigua and Barbuda, and the approved alternatives in Türkiye.
  • Bank deposits or other statutory instruments — where a programme still publishes them.
  • Contribution routes are simpler to close. Real-estate routes return capital at the end of the holding period, subject to the market and the project. We put both numbers in front of the family before a developer is introduced.

The programmes

Turkey. Citizenship from USD 400,000 in qualifying real estate, or the other instruments the regulation lists. The family is included. Title is taken in Türkiye; the passport follows the diligence and the land registry.

Grenada. A contribution to the National Transformation Fund or an approved real-estate project. Grenada is an E-2 treaty country with the United States: the passport can later support an American investor visa that the other Caribbean passports on this list cannot.

Dominica. A contribution to the Economic Diversification Fund or approved real estate. A Commonwealth Caribbean passport. One of the programmes with the longest continuous record.

Antigua and Barbuda. A contribution to the National Development Fund, approved real estate, or a business investment. A family application from the first filing. A short presence requirement applies after citizenship in some years; we state it in the brief.

São Tomé and Príncipe. A contribution to the National Transformation Fund. A straightforward donation route for families who want a second nationality without a property closing.
