What features for investors
Benefits
Second citizenship or residency allows one to travel freely around the world, move abroad, and provide safety and a better quality of life to your family.
Some countries enable applicants to obtain a second passport remotely, and others make lenient demands on living in the country and learning its language.
The list of countries for migration
By investment includes South European states, popular among expats: Portugal, Greece, and Spain. Migration programs also work in the UAE, Vanuatu and Caribbean states.
The investment options
Depend on a country and status. In the Caribbean, investors usually choose between contribution to a state fund and property purchase. In European countries, they may buy real estate, transfer capital, and invest in securities or businesses.
How can a licensed agent help you get residency or citizenship?
As a rule, migration by investment requires the participation of a licensed agent, a consulting company helping investors apply and get a second passport. This condition is indicated in the laws of most states that grant citizenship by investment.
