Citizenship By Investment or Residency by Investment?

Gain a second passport through Citizenship By Investment or Residency programs, offering expedited routes for citizens seeking international mobility. JH Marlin facilitates applications that involve government-approved investments or residency requirements, offering swift access to a valid travel document. But which is right for you?

Citizenship By Investment

Citizenship by investment programs are designed to provide citizenship in exchange for an investment in the country. This financial investment can come in many different forms, from real estate investments to the purchasing of government bonds. Once the foreign investment has been approved and made, you will be a citizen and gain a second passport.

Many countries offer Citizenship through Investment, including Caribbean countries such as Saint Kitts and Nevis, Antigua, St Lucia, and more. You can even gain various European citizenship such as citizenship for Cyprus, Greece, and Portuguese citizenship.

The Citizenship By Investment Process:

Residency by Investment

Acquiring a second passport through residency offers an alternative route to Citizenship By Investment. Unlike the investment program, residency entails a naturalization process where individuals establish permanent residency in a foreign country. Upon fulfilling residency requirements, applicants can become dual citizens, enjoying benefits similar to those with citizenship. Previous trips and a commitment to return may be required, leading to the eventual issuance of a foreign passport and dual citizenship.

Frequently Asked Questions About Securing a Second Passport

If you are interested in securing a second passport but still have questions, we will address them below. If you need further assistance or have decided to pursue a second passport, contact JH Marlin.

What Are The Main Routes to Gain a Second Passport?

Aside from citizenship by investment and residency by investment, there are some alternative routes to obtain a second passport, but all relate to familial relations. Below are some of the alternative routes to gaining a second passport:

Ancestral citizenship
Citizenship through descent
Citizenship by marriage
Birthright citizenship

How Long Does It Take To Get A Second Passport?

The duration to secure a second passport varies based on the chosen method and country. Citizenship By Investment (CBI) programs for Caribbean citizenship, like those in St. Kitts and Nevis, Dominica, or Antigua and Barbuda, are some of the fastest countries to grant alternative citizenship, typically taking a few months to six months. Conversely, citizenship by naturalization entails longer timelines, often requiring several years of residency before eligibility.

What Documents Do You Need To Get a Second Passport?

Obtaining dual citizenship through investment requires a wide variety of documents that JH Marlin will help you collect to prove yourself as a legitimate candidate to the embassy, immigration, and passport agency. For the passport document itself, you typically need your primary passport, proof of identity, and citizenship. Additional documents may include birth certificates, passport photos, and proof of residency.

How Much Does It Cost To Get a Second Citizenship?

The cost of securing a second passport varies significantly based on factors like the chosen method and country. For instance, Citizenship By Investment (CBI) programs may require minimum investments ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. Additionally, applicants must consider application fees, processing costs, and potential legal assistance fees, making it essential to budget accordingly for each citizenship program.

Can Anyone Get a Second Passport?

While obtaining a second passport is feasible for many individuals, eligibility hinges on factors such as the country's citizenship laws and the chosen method. Citizenship By Investment programs often offer accessible routes for passport holders, requiring applicants to meet financial thresholds. Residency By Investment and naturalization processes entail additional criteria like residency requirements or familial ties. It's crucial to research eligibility criteria corresponding to the desired citizenship program before starting the alternative passport process.

Can I Keep My Initial Citizenship?

Yes, in many cases, individuals can retain their initial citizenship when obtaining a second passport. Citizenship by birth or other legal means typically allows for dual citizenship. Holding a valid passport from each country enables individuals to enjoy the benefits of dual citizenship, including access to two legal identities and the ability to travel and reside in either country as desired.
