Citizenship Programs 2026

Three Pathways to Your
Vanuatu Passport

All programs are 100% remote. No interview. No language test. No residency requirement before or after approval. Processing from 45 days.

⚠️

EU Schengen Update (December 2024): Vanuatu's visa-free access to the EU Schengen Area was suspended on 12 December 2024. Vanuatu passport holders now require a Schengen visa. Key destinations including Singapore, Hong Kong, UAE (VOA), Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, and 118+ countries remain accessible. We provide a full current visa-free country list on request. For Schengen access we recommend a complementary Caribbean CBI — ask us about dual-program strategies.

FAQ

Frequently Asked
Questions

DSP starts at $130,000 for a single applicant. A couple is $150,000. A family of 3 is $165,000. A family of 4 is $180,000. Each additional adult dependent adds $25,000. The CIIP program is $155,000 for any family size up to 4, with $50,000 redeemable after 4 years — making the net cost effectively $105,000. All figures are government fees only. Professional/consulting fees are quoted separately.
Vanuatu is the world's fastest citizenship by investment program. Average processing is 45–60 days from application submission. The process involves FIU due diligence (1–3 weeks) followed by Citizenship Commission review. Note: actual timelines depend on government volume and application complexity. We never guarantee specific timelines — always confirm current processing before applying.
Yes. Vanuatu has absolutely zero personal income tax, zero capital gains tax, zero corporate tax, zero inheritance tax, zero wealth tax, and zero gift tax. This is enshrined in Vanuatu law and has been in place for decades. IBCs incorporated in Vanuatu pay a flat $300/year registration fee — no corporate tax on global income.
Yes. Vanuatu explicitly permits dual citizenship under the Citizenship Act 2013. You do not need to renounce your current citizenship. You will hold both passports simultaneously. Note: some countries (e.g. USA, Germany) have restrictions on their citizens holding dual nationality — you should verify the rules in your home country before applying.
The EU suspended Vanuatu's visa-free access to the Schengen Area on 12 December 2024. Vanuatu passport holders now require a Schengen visa to visit EU member states. Key destinations including Singapore, Hong Kong, UAE, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, and 113+ other countries remain visa-free. For clients who need Schengen access, we strongly recommend a complementary Caribbean CBI (Dominica from $100,000 or St Kitts from $250,000) as a dual-passport strategy.
DSP (Development Support Program) is a non-refundable donation starting from $130,000 for a single applicant. It is the most popular program due to its lower individual cost. CIIP (Capital Investment Immigration Plan) is $155,000 for individuals, couples, and families up to 4 — with $50,000 invested in the Cocoa Sustainable Fund (redeemable after 4 years), making the net cost $105,000. CIIP is better value for families of 3–4. Both have 45–60 day processing and identical citizenship rights.
Vanuatu Permanent Residency (PR Green Card) gives you the legal right to live, work, and operate a business in Vanuatu indefinitely, on a 10-year renewable basis. It does NOT give you a Vanuatu passport or citizenship travel document. PR can lead to citizenship via naturalisation after 10 years of continuous lawful residency. The CBI citizenship programs (DSP, CIIP, REO) give you full citizenship and a passport directly — no residency period required.
No. The entire Vanuatu citizenship by investment process is 100% remote. You never need to visit Vanuatu before, during, or after your application. The Oath of Allegiance — the only ceremonial requirement — is conducted via video call. Your passport is issued and delivered via the nearest Vanuatu consulate or embassy to your location.
