Options include a minimum contribution to the Economic Diversification Fund (EDF) or purchasing a government-approved property. The program strengthens Dominica’s infrastructure and economy, supporting its natural beauty and national development.

FAQ

FAQ on Dominica citizenship by investment

What is the Dominica Citizenship by Investment Program?

Is it possible to obtain citizenship in Dominica without physically living in the country?

Yes, acquiring Dominican citizenship through the Dominica Citizenship by Investment program does not require the principal applicant to reside in the country. The citizenship application process can be completed entirely remotely, making it a convenient option for individuals from other Caribbean islands or regions like Hong Kong. This program is particularly appealing for those seeking dual citizenship without needing a residence permit in Dominica.

What are the potential drawbacks and concerns about obtaining Dominican citizenship by investment?

Some potential risks include the significant financial commitment, such as the fund contribution and government fees, as well as expenses related to diligence background checks and interview fees (if required for detailed cases). There can also be concerns regarding the thoroughness of the diligence report, which examines the applicant’s bank statements and foreign income sources. Additionally, applicants must ensure they have no criminal record, as this can disqualify them from meeting the program’s investment requirement.

Is a mandatory interview required for the application?

No, the Dominica Citizenship by Investment program does not involve a mandatory interview for most applicants. However, applicants are required to submit all necessary documents, including bank statements, medical certificates, and divorce certificates (if applicable), during the citizenship application process. Due diligence checks are carried out to confirm eligibility. This efficient process helps reduce the average processing time, making it easier for passport holders or principal applicants to obtain their citizenship without unnecessary delays.
