Good news for investors seeking a fast, cost-efficient second citizenship: the Republic of Nauru has extended the limited-time offer on its Economic and Climate Resilience Citizenship Program. The reduced entry point of $90,000 USD will now remain until 31 December 2026. It was originally due to close at the end of June but has been extended to the end of this year giving applicants a further six months to secure citizenship at the programs lowest contribution to date.
When Nauru refreshed its program earlier this year, it moved to a flat base contribution of $115,000 for single applicants and families alike, then introduced the promotional $90,000 rate as a short-term incentive to drive early interest. That promotional window has now been pushed back to the end of 2026 – a welcome development for anyone who liked the offer but wasn’t quite ready to act before the original deadline.
Nothing else about the program has changed. The same streamlined framework, flexible family terms, and rigorous due diligence remain in place. The only difference is that the discounted pricing now runs for another half-year.
Here’s where the numbers stand under the extended window:
The saving is genuinely material: up to around 22% for single applicants and up to 25% for a family of four, measured against the pre-discount structure. At US $90,000, Nauru now sits level with São Tomé and Príncipe as one of the two most affordable entry points in the global citizenship-by-investment market.
Price is only part of the story. Even before the discount, Nauru earned its place as a credible Plan B option, and the qualities that made it attractive haven’t gone anywhere:
The extended offer is well suited to investors who want an accelerated, lower-cost route to a second citizenship without the friction of residency obligations. It’s a strong fit for anyone building a Plan B, diversifying a citizenship portfolio, or looking to bring an extended family under a single application. And for holders of passports with limited reach, the mobility gain alone can justify the move.

At $90,000, Nauru is now the cheapest citizenship-by-investment option on the market, alongside São Tomé. But this offer won’t last forever. The original June deadline caught a lot of applicants mid-decision, this six month extension grants enough time to complete due diligence properly, gather documents, and apply without cutting corners.
Our honest take: Nauru suits a particular kind of buyer. If you already hold a strong passport, the mobility gain is modest, and there are more prestigious programs worth weighing up. But if you want an affordable Plan B, need to bring an extended family under a single application, or hold a passport that limits where you can travel, few programs match Nauru on price and speed right now.
If June came too soon, you’ve got another window to move forward. Talk to La Vida’s experts and we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s the right move for your situation.
