Antigua & Barbuda Citizenship by Investment Program

Antigua and Barbuda's Citizenship by Investment Program offers an exclusive chance to obtain a second passport while enjoying the islands' stunning beaches, tropical charm, and luxurious lifestyle. As one of the Caribbean's largest islands and a Commonwealth member, Antigua and Barbuda provide diverse citizenship opportunities for individuals and families aiming to expand their ventures in a tax-free environment.

Launched in 2012, the program allows individuals to gain citizenship by investing in government funds, approved real estate projects, or businesses on the islands. With visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to over 153 countries, this second passport offers incredible benefits.

A minimum donation of USD 230,000 to the government is the most cost-effective way to secure citizenship for individuals and families. Investments are only required after the application is approved, ensuring a safe and transparent process.
