Dominica Amends Age Requirements for its Citizenship by Investment Programme

Dominica is just one of a selection of Caribbean islands offering a cost effective Citizenship by Investment programme and is one of the fastest programmes in the world to obtain a second passport.  As part of the British Commonwealth, a Dominican passport will allow investors the ability to visa free travel to over 100 countries worldwide including the UK and the European Schengen zone. All this can be issued as quickly as 3 – 4 months.

Dominica has just recently amended its programme to include some great new advantages. One of the main improvements is that the age limit for children has been increased from 25 years old to 28 years old.  Grandparents can also be included and the age limit has been decreased from 65 years old to 55 years old, resulting in a more flexible scheme for those wishing to include the whole family one application.

Investors can choose from two main options to obtain a second passport:

• A non refundable donation to the government at $100,000 per single applicant + fees.
• Or an investment in real estate, starting from $220,000 + fees.

The government fees associated with a real estate investment are now as follows:

• Children above the age of 18 years old but younger than 28 years old – $25,000.
• Elderly dependents (Grandparents)- $25,000.

We advise that investors who are considering the Caribbean options for a second passport to also review the other Citizenship by Investment schemes available in St Kitts, Grenada, Antigua and Barbuda.

La Vida  Golden Visas can assist with both the donation and real estate options for these programme. Please note for real estate you must invest into a government approved project. The Jungle Bay Resort is a very popular choice for our investors.  To view our real estate projects in the Caribbean, follow this link for Real Estate Options.
