Citizenship by Investment
Citizenship by investment programs, or CBI, offer individuals and their families the possibility to obtain a second citizenship through a qualifying investment, usually a government fund contribution or a real estate investment, and in some countries a business investment. The 21 programs below cover the Caribbean, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Africa, starting from USD 90,000 with Nauru. Most governments that offer CBI programs only accept applications filed through an authorized agent, the role Harvey Law Group has handled for investor clients since 1992.
