Citizenship by investment is the process of obtaining a second citizenship and passport by investing in the economy of selected countries.
On average, applications are processed in 6 – 12 months. The programs have the added advantage of not requiring any specific skills, language knowledge or residency from the applicant, in essence conferring Citizenship exclusively on the basis of clean record and significant investment.
Golden Visa programs in Europe offer applicants the opportunity to relocate to Europe along with their families, establish ties, enjoy a European lifestyle and avail the many social and cultural benefits of the continent, and eventually applying for Citizenship in their host nation, provided they meet the social integration requirements set by the host nation.
Golden Visa programs are an excellent option for younger families and individuals looking to relocate to Europe.
Any businessperson looking to do business globally needs to ensure his or her Global Mobility is unhindered. A Second Citizenship or Golden Visa allows for such individuals to travel to most areas of the world for important, often last-minute meetings with ease, without having to apply for visas, submit copious amounts of documentation and wait endlessly for their passports to be stamped. With a Second Citizenship you can visit most countries without a Visa (visa-free access) or with visa on arrival. Golden Visas in Europe enable freedom of movement through Europe’s Schengen area, and eventually the advantages of Visa Free access once Citizenship is approved. Second Citizenship and Residency also allows for choosing suitable jurisdictions to optimize taxes, most countries that offer Second Citizenship also feature low taxation regimes that can be highly advantageous.
While the exact percentage of tax savings will vary based on several factors including the tax percentage in your present country, and the specific program you choose to apply for, we have in the past helped to bring down taxes to as low as less than 1% of total taxable income for our clients, saving them hundreds of thousands of dollars each year.
Citizenship programs have varying processing timeframes based on the country in question. Most programs in the Caribbean are processed within 4 – 6 months, while European programs are processed within 6 – 12 months, and Turkey within 6 – 12 months. The fastest program is Vanuatu with a processing time of 35-60 days.
All Citizenship by Investment programs allow for main applicants to apply along with their families. Details for each program can be found on the various program pages under Citizenship by Investment.
In most cases, countries offer Citizenship by Investment through donations to Government Development programs, Investments into Approved Real Estate or through Financial Instruments like Government Approved Bonds, Bank Deposits etc. Some programs require a combination of two or more of the above in order to qualify for Citizenship or Residency.
