Citizenship by investment

08 Feb Citizenship by investment

There are just five Caribbean countries that provide citizenship through investment, all member states of CARICOM: Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, St. Kitts and Nevis, and St. Lucia. To obtain Caribbean citizenship and a passport, you can either make a donation or invest in real estate, with costs starting from $100,000.

There are currently five Caribbean citizenship by investment (CBI) programs in operation, offering lucrative incentives and relatively affordable investment options to investors looking to diversify their assets and protect their wealth. The Caribbean CBI unit of each country conducts thorough due diligence checks to ensure each CBI application meets the necessary requirements. When thinking about which Caribbean CBI to pick, consider factors like the timeline to acquiring a passport, the best value for your money, visa-free travel, and investor requirements.

Benefits of CBI programs include no taxation on international income, no wealth, inheritance, gift or capital gains tax; little to no residency requirement, meaning relocation isn’t needed; attractive investment opportunities in the tourism sector; an idyllic lifestyle in turquoise blue waters and under the sun; and visa-free travel to over 140 destinations.
