Dominica Citizenship: A Sustainable Second Passport Solution

9 February 2026
The Republic of Nauru has unveiled exciting updates to its Citizenship by Investment Programme that make this unique second citizenship option even more compelling for global investors. These changes reflect a strategic shift to broaden accessibility and modernise the programme’s framework while maintaining rigorous standards.
Revised fee structure: The programme moved from a tiered contribution model to a flat base contribution of US $115,000 regardless of whether you are a single applicant or a family.
Fee Changes: Application and due diligence fees have been significantly reduced.
Limited-Time Offer (LTO): For applications received before June 30, 2026, the base contribution is reduced to US $90,000.
Expanded family eligibility: Dependents are no longer restricted by age, financial dependency, or marital status. Children, parents, and siblings can now be included based on direct family relationship alone – one of the most flexible family definitions in the CBI market.
With the introduction of promotional pricing and reduced fees, single applicants can achieve savings of up to 22%, and families of four up to 25%, versus the previous pricing structure.
Under the updated structure:
This positions Nauru as one of the most cost-efficient citizenship by investment pathways globally, especially attractive for investors seeking a fast, value-driven option without stringent residency requirements.
Even before the recent price changes, Nauru stood out as a great alternative in the global citizenship by investment offerings:
Affordability: It has always been one of the lowest cost entry points in the market, sitting closely behind São Tomé and Príncipe’s CBI offering. With the LTO, both programmes now require the same contribution of $90,000.
Speed: Citizenship decisions typically arrive within 3–4 months, enabling swift planning and deployment of global mobility strategies.
Family inclusion: Dependents and extended family can be part of a single application, enhancing value for investors seeking interconnected solutions.
Dual citizenship: Nauru permits holding multiple nationalities, giving clients flexibility to retain their primary citizenship.
No residence requirements: Applicants do not need to relocate or spend time in the country before or after approval.
Contributory impact: Your investment supports climate resilience and sustainable development initiatives on an island nation on the frontlines of environmental challenges.
With visa-free access to 101 destinations, the Nauru passport delivers meaningful global access to some of the world’s key destinations and business hubs, such as Hong Kong, Qatar, UAE, Singapore, Ireland and Malaysia. For holders of more restrictive passports, such as Pakistani or Nigerian passports, Nauru’s Citizenship by Investment programme can significantly enhance global mobility and international business opportunities.
For forward-thinking investors, Nauru’s revised programme offers an accelerated, cost-efficient route to securing a Plan B second citizenship – with a significant short-term discount and expanded family coverage that aligns with global mobility strategies.
Combined with robust screening and no residency requirement, this makes Nauru’s CBI a strong contender for those prioritising flexibility, security, and strategic optionality.
If you’re considering diversifying your citizenship portfolio or securing an alternative passport for your family, now is an excellent window to explore Nauru’s LTO.
