General
The Vanuatu REO Program lets you gain citizenship by investing in government-approved property. Unlike the donation-based DSP, this route gives you both a second passport and a valuable asset. You’ll purchase property in pre-approved developments, submit your documents for verification, and complete the process with the help of a licensed local representative. It’s straightforward and designed to make your journey to citizenship smooth and hassle-free.
To gain Vanuatu citizenship, you'll need to invest a minimum of $50,000 USD, though this can vary by development. Eligible properties include government-approved resort villas, residential units, and serviced apartments. Ownership must be maintained for at least 5 years, after which you can sell the property without losing your citizenship. Reach out to us for more details—we're here to help!
Once all application forms, supporting documents, and investment confirmations are submitted, the processing time is typically 60 to 90 days. The process begins with a due diligence check, followed by a provisional approval. Once approved, the investment is finalized and the citizenship certificates and passports are issued. The timeline may vary slightly depending on the responsiveness of the applicant and the completeness of the documentation.
Yes, your family can join you in your Vanuatu citizenship application! This includes your spouse, children under 18, dependent children up to 25 (if they’re full-time students), and dependent parents over 50. Each additional applicant will need separate documentation and a small fee. Once approved, your family members will enjoy full citizenship with all the same rights and benefits as you.
With Vanuatu citizenship through the REO Program, you’ll enjoy visa-free travel to over 100 countries, including the UK, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Plus, there are no personal income, capital gains, or wealth taxes, and no corporate tax for your business. The process is quick, with minimal paperwork, and grants you lifetime citizenship that can be passed to future generations. You’ll also own assets in a thriving Pacific tourism destination known for its stability and business-friendly environment.
