Instructions
Step 1
For money, the easiest way to get citizenship in the Dominican Republic. This small but popular tourist destination in the Caribbean will require a ridiculous (compared to other countries) investment in the economy - $ 100,000. The money is invested in direct payment to the state. An application is submitted, which is considered from six months to 14 months. Stay in the country is not required. Upon expiry of the processing period, the applicant receives a passport that allows him to travel without a visa to Switzerland, the UK and 50 more countries. For a family with two minor children, the investment amount will be $ 200,000. For each other relative, you will have to pay an additional $ 50,000.
Step 2
In the small New World state of Saint Kitts and Nevis, located on the Caribbean islands, the procedure for obtaining citizenship costs a little more - $ 400,000. It is for this amount that you need to buy real estate in Saint Kitts and Nevis. After buying real estate in just 4 months, the buyer becomes a citizen of this state, acquiring a passport that allows you to travel without a visa to all countries of the Schengen Union and almost all countries of the British Commonwealth, as well as go to Canada, Great Britain and Ireland. Saint Kitts and Nevis not only does not require the investor to stay in the country, but also exempts the new citizen from paying taxes. In addition to the investor, citizenship can be obtained by his spouse, his minor children and retired parents.
Step 3
It is very inexpensive to obtain Latvian citizenship. It is enough to buy real estate for 72,000 euros (except for Riga and Jurmala - in these regions you need to invest 140,000 euros) and you can get a residence permit. True, the investor will receive citizenship only after 10 years, but there is no need to reside permanently in the country. But the right to move freely with a Latvian passport applies only to the Schengen countries.
Step 4
Without investment, you can get Australian citizenship at all. But for this you need to have a desire to live and work in the "kangaroo country" and successfully pass the test for professional aptitude. Australia offers three options: independent and regional professional immigration and business immigration. To obtain citizenship through professional immigration, you must score 120 points on the scale of interest in immigrants. Not only serious professional training is required, but also knowledge of English, age up to 29 years old and work experience in the specialty of at least 12 years is desirable.
