With so many Citizenship by Investment (CBI) programs on the market, it can be difficult to decide which one to choose. There are programs all around the world, from Europe to the South Pacific, and each one offers amazing benefits and opportunities for foreign nationals. However, no matter how many options high-net-worth investors have available to them, many people choose to opt for a Caribbean CBI program as their chosen route to a second passport.
This is not to say that European programs are any less desirable, but it can prove difficult to beat the tropical weather, pristine beaches, laidback lifestyle and amazing advantages that holding a Caribbean passport has to offer. That being said, we look at which Caribbean countries offer citizenship by investment programs:
Renowned worldwide for its 365 beaches of clear turquoise waters, beautiful natural views and laidback island lifestyle, Antigua and Barbuda is a slice of paradise for the eager traveller who loves tropical weather and warm ocean waters. However, this Caribbean nation is more than just a pretty tourist destination – it’s also home to one of the most popular citizenship by investment programs in the world.
Foreign investors can choose to either make a one-time contribution to Antigua and Barbuda’s National Development Fund or invest in government-approved real estate to qualify for citizenship.
In 1993, the Commonwealth of Dominica’s government introduced citizenship by investment program that invites foreign nationals from all around the world to obtain second citizenship through investing in the country. As with many other countries, the Commonwealth of Dominica launched this program as a means to generate more foreign investment into the island nation and further the development of its economy and infrastructure.
