Vanuatu has the only Citizenship by Investment programme in the Asia-Pacific Hemisphere and is one of the fastest.

Under the Special Government Fund programme, the investment requirement is $130,000 for a single applicant and $180,000 for a family of four plus fees.

The newly launched CIIP-CNO Future Fund programme combines citizenship application with an investment in the coconut oil sector. Under this programme, the $115,000 all-inclusive citizenship fee covers up to four family members on one application.

There are no restrictions on dual citizenship and there is no requirement to visit or reside to retain a passport. Vanuatu has no income tax, wealth tax, capital gains or inheritance tax. Citizenship is hereditary and an Oath Swearing Ceremony can be arranged in convenient locations around the world.
