There are many significant advantages of Vanuatu Citizenship and its passport.

​

Vanuatu has the only Citizenship by investment program in the Asia-Pacific Hemisphere. The program offers one of the fastest citizenship and second passport programs available for investors. Processing is fast with citizenship within 30-60 days.  So if time is of the essence, this is the by far the best option.

 

Dual citizenship is recognized in Vanuatu. Applicants are not required to renounce previous nationality to become a citizen of Vanuatu and information on obtaining the second passport is discrete and is not reported to the country of first citizenship.

 

One of Vanuatu's selling point is its remoteness. While the coronavirus pandemic has brought on social uncertainty and economic instability across the globe, it has simultaneously demonstrated the value of having a plan B in life. In times of such a global mobility crisis, CBI gives people the freedom of choice to start over in a new country and build a future for themselves and their families. 

​

Swift border closures enabled Vanuatu to remain COVID-19 free, no local cases of Covid-19 have been recorded in Vanuatu to date. Explanations for Vanuatu’s success in handling the pandemic have varied. Some have attributed it to the country’s swift action in closing boarders to foreigners, clean air and remote geography. Whilst remote, Vanuatu is still only a short flight away from Brisbane, Sydney, and Auckland. 

​

Vanuatu's off-the-radar location allows an escape from all the world’s troubles and to enjoy its pristine nature.Vanuatu’s relatively small population of approximately 300,000 live in a country with extremely clean air, water, and food.

​

Vanuatu is an English/French speaking British Commonwealth member country. Commonwealth member countries benefit from being part of a mutually supportive community of independent and sovereign states, aided by more than 80 Commonwealth organisations. The Commonwealth Secretariat, established in 1965, supports Commonwealth member countries to achieve development, democracy and peace. Vanuatu’s citizens are given additional rights in other Commonwealth countries, for example they are able to apply for extended visa's in Australia and New Zealand for up to 12 months. 

​

Vanuatu has zero corporate tax, no income tax, no capital gains tax, no estate tax, no wealth tax, no withholding tax, no gift tax and no other personal income taxes. Vanuatu only has local 12.5% VAT (Value added Tax or GST) on all goods & services. 

​

The government of Vanuatu recently confirmed it is possible to make payment in bitcoin for the DSP Citizenship program. Whilst the Government of Vanuatu will not take payment direct in bitcoin, authorised agents are able to take payment and remit to the government in USD. VIC is able to take payment in bitcoin for fees. 

​

When deciding on a second passport and citizenship, you need compelling reasons to choose a particular program. Vanuatu offers complete privacy to citizenship investors. The names of CBI citizens are not published in gazette or anywhere or reported anywhere to public. It is widely considered one of the best private citizenship by investment programs in the world.

​

Vanuatu is undoubtedly one of the best citizenship by investment programs due to its speed of processing, relative low pricing and with its extensive passport benefits. Vanuatu undoubtedly has the fastest CBI program in the World as of 2020. The Vanuatu Government welcomes investment citizens to The Republic of Vanuatu.
