Government-approved second passport programmes in the Caribbean and Pacific — starting from $105,000 with no residency requirement.
Citizenship by Investment is a government-approved immigration pathway that allows individuals to obtain full citizenship of a country by making a qualifying economic contribution.
In return, investors and their families receive citizenship rights including a passport, global travel privileges, and access to new markets.
Unlike traditional immigration pathways, many citizenship programs do not require years of residency before approval — making them one of the fastest routes to obtaining a second passport.

Purchase of government-designated real estate that can typically be resold after a specified holding period.
Direct investment into approved businesses or economic projects that support local development.

Obtaining a second citizenship provides both personal and business advantages for global investors and their families.
One of the primary benefits of a second passport is enhanced travel freedom. Depending on the country selected, investors can access 100–157+ visa-free destinations including major international business hubs.
A second citizenship makes it easier for entrepreneurs to expand their international footprint by opening doors to new markets, banking relationships, and global networks.
Some citizenship programs provide access to jurisdictions with favourable tax frameworks, helping investors structure their global wealth more efficiently.
A second citizenship provides a long-term security strategy for families, offering the flexibility to relocate or access alternative residency options when needed.
Citizenship programs offer different investment pathways depending on the country. Each route has distinct advantages depending on your financial goals and personal circumstances.
A non-refundable contribution to a national development or economic fund. This is the simplest and most common route, with no ongoing obligations or property management.
Purchase of government-approved real estate that can typically be resold after a specified holding period. Combines citizenship benefits with a tangible asset.
Direct investment into approved businesses or economic projects that support local development. Suitable for investors seeking active involvement in the jurisdiction.
Certain programs offer investment routes through government bonds or national investment funds, providing a structured financial instrument alongside citizenship benefits.

Answers to the most common questions about second passport programmes, costs, processing times, and eligibility.
Saint Kitts & Nevis currently offers the strongest CBI passport with visa-free access to 157+ countries, including Schengen states, the UK, and Singapore. Antigua & Barbuda (150+) and Grenada (147+) are also highly regarded. Grenada is unique in granting access to the US E-2 Investor Visa — a significant advantage for business-oriented investors.
Most Caribbean CBI programmes do not require any physical presence. The full process — application, due diligence, and passport issuance — can be managed remotely by BFG Global Mobility as your authorised representative. Vanuatu may require a brief in-person oath ceremony in some cases. We confirm country-specific requirements at the outset of every engagement.
This depends on your home country's laws. Many countries permit dual nationality — including the UK, Canada, Australia, and most EU states. Some countries, such as China, India, and certain Gulf states, restrict or prohibit dual citizenship. BFG Global Mobility provides guidance on dual nationality implications based on your current passport.
All CBI programmes mandate thorough background checks covering criminal records, financial history, source of funds verification, and international compliance databases. BFG Global Mobility conducts a pre-screening assessment before submission to identify and address any potential issues in advance, reducing the risk of delays or rejection.
Yes. Children included in the original application receive citizenship simultaneously with the principal applicant. In most programmes, children born after citizenship is granted also qualify for citizenship by descent, depending on the laws of the issuing country.
Total costs include the qualifying investment, government processing and due diligence fees, and professional advisory fees. For a single applicant, all-in costs typically range from $150,000 to $350,000 depending on the programme and route. For a family of four, expect $200,000–$450,000. BFG Global Mobility provides a detailed cost breakdown at no obligation.
A government contribution is a non-refundable donation to a national development fund — typically the cheaper entry point and the simplest to execute. A real estate route involves purchasing government-approved property, which can generally be resold after a holding period of 5–7 years, giving you a tangible asset alongside your citizenship. The real estate route usually involves a higher minimum investment.
