Vanuatu Passport Issued for Our Respected Client in October 2020

Proud to announce that another Passport is issued in October 2020 for our client who applied under Vanuatu Citizenship by Investment Program.

Many investors choose specific areas to invest in based on their professional goals or business trips. Some countries in Europe and the Caribbean offer second citizenship programs through investment, but Vanuatu is one of the few states to provide a competitive and fast-paced option in Oceania.

Which country will give you a second passport within only two months?

The answer is Vanuatu! Vanuatu is a South Pacific Ocean nation made up of roughly 80 islands in eastern Australia, has a warm and pleasant tropical climate, and is part of the British Commonwealth; Thus, with a Vanuatu passport, you can travel to the UK, EU countries, and many Asian countries, including Hong Kong and Singapore, without a visa.

Although many citizenship programs are not currently available to Iranian citizens, Iranian investors who have worked and lived outside Iran for five years can also apply for a Vanuatu passport.
