The Caribbean region

The Caribbean region is located to the southeast of the Gulf of Mexico and North America, east of Central America and north of South America and consists of more than 7,000 islands that together are called the West Indies.
Through citizenship programs that are offered by the states on the Caribbean Islands, investors' funds are channeled to social projects, infrastructure and jobs.

There are two options for obtaining citizenship for investment:
 1) Government Donation

In order to participate in this program, the investor makes a non-refundable contribution from each person in favor of the state whose citizenship he wants to receive. Before transferring funds, the investor, with the help of an accredited agent, submits all necessary documents and undergoes a comprehensive verification of the identity and all dependents over 16 years of age. After that, the investor is given the requisites for payment and by its result the citizenship is granted.

2) Real Estate Investment
The main requirement is the purchase of real estate, approved by the state for this program, with a certain minimum cost. The investment object could not be sold after receiving citizenship for a certain period of time (depending on the country, on average - 4-5 years).
