(Non-Refundable Government Donations Priced From $130,000. Lowest legally permissible program pricing guaranteed. Contact us to get a free quote now.)
The below Vanuatu Passport Cost Table for 2024/2025 is in line with the official program pricing for the Development Support Program (DSP) as determined by the Vanuatu Citizenship By Investment Unit. The state citizenship donations are inclusive of agency commissions, but excludes due diligence fees.
The Vanuatu DSP, with government donations priced from just $130,000 for a single applicant, is the most well-known of the country’s CBI program options. In addition, however, Vanuatu introduced an exciting new CBI program track in late 2023.
The new Capital Investment Immigration Program (CIIP) features an investment component, in addition to a non-refundable government donation. The $50,0000 investment is made into the Cocoa Sustainable Fund (CSF), and is redeemable after 4 years.
Priced at only $160,500 ALL-IN for a family of up to 4 people (i.e. a married couple and 2 children up to the age of 25 years), the program track has been gaining massive traction during the first half of 2024.
Moreover, given that the minimum donation component alone for the Caribbean CBI Programs is going up to $200,000 on July 1, 2024 (even for single applicants), it is expected that the Vanuatu CBI Program will once again gain significant market share during the latter half of the year.
Let’s take a look at the two Vanuatu CBI investment tracks below…
