The Caribbean Citizenship by Investment programs has provided second passports to families for the past 40 years and are renowned for their easy and safe returns. These programs effectively draw foreign capital and seek opportunities for individuals and families to apply for second passports. They provide numerous benefits including visa-free travel, security and stability, safe dual citizenship, and many more, which are the reasons for their growing popularity.
Changes in the Caribbean Citizenship Programs
New amendments have been made to four popular Caribbean programs to strengthen their nature. The Caribbean countries – Antigua & Barbuda, Commonwealth of Dominica, Grenada, and Saint Kitts & Nevis, respectively signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with new regulations to enhance Citizenship by Investment programs.
One of the biggest changes in the regulation, effective June 30th, 2024, includes an increase in the minimum investment amount required for obtaining citizenship. They are as follows:
- Commonwealth of Dominica will increase from $100,000 to $200,000.
- Grenada will increase from $150,000 to $200,000.
- Antigua & Barbuda will increase from $100,000 to $200,000.
- Saint Kitts & Nevis is at $250,000 to remain premium and competitive.
This decision comes after substantial deliberation between the EU, UK, and US Treasury Department to comply with a new set of guidelines and promote regularity amongst all the programs eliminating any risk of inconsistency.
The new regulations also state disciplinary rules in the sanctions to ensure transparency and credibility following international guidelines.
The memorandum also includes new regulations to maintain a high level of diligence by undertaking security measures that ensure proper screening. Along with this a new introduction of interviews prior to final approvals is added.
The four signatory countries have taken this step to create the utmost standards in the programs as well as increase the processing guidelines to ensure integral and fair practices are being performed. This will also reduce any disparities in the process making investors receive the total value of their investment.
