Frequently Asked Questions

Can I include my family in my application?

Yes. Most Caribbean citizenship by investment programs allow you to include eligible family members, such as your spouse, dependent children, and, in many cases, dependent parents or grandparents. Eligibility varies by country.

Do I need to visit the country before or after obtaining citizenship?

In most cases, no physical visit is required during the application process. However, some programs may require an oath of allegiance or a short visit after approval, depending on the country's regulations.

Can I keep my current citizenship?

Most Caribbean CBI countries permit dual citizenship, meaning you can generally retain your existing nationality. However, you should also verify whether your current country of citizenship allows dual nationality.

What happens if my application is rejected?

If an application is declined following due diligence, the investment is generally not completed. However, government processing fees, due diligence fees, and professional service fees are typically non-refundable. The exact outcome depends on the program and the stage at which the application is refused.

Do I have to live in the country after becoming a citizen?

No. Caribbean citizenship obtained through investment does not generally require you to relocate or spend a minimum number of days in the country to maintain your citizenship.

Can my children inherit my Caribbean citizenship?

Yes. In most Caribbean CBI jurisdictions, citizenship can be passed on to future generations, allowing children born after you obtain citizenship to acquire citizenship by descent, subject to each country's laws.

What is the Republic of Vanuatu passport?

A **Republic of Vanuatu passport** is an official travel document issued to a citizen of Vanuatu. Citizenship may be obtained through several legal routes, including investment where an applicant meets the applicable program requirements.

What is the Vanuatu passport cost?

The **Vanuatu passport cost** forms part of the overall citizenship budget but is separate from the qualifying contribution. Passport issuance, processing, and administrative charges should be considered when calculating the total cost of the application.

Can I include my family in the application?

Eligible family members may be included, subject to current program requirements. Depending on the applicant's circumstances, this can include a spouse, dependent children, and other qualifying dependants.

Do I need to travel to Vanuatu?

Applicants are not generally required to relocate to Vanuatu. However, travel may be required to complete biometrics, the oath, or another procedural step, depending on the route and the procedures in force at the time. Where biometric collection can be completed outside Vanuatu, applicants must confirm whether an authorised overseas collection location is available for their specific case.
