Q: Can I travel to Europe or the UK without a visa?

No. Both require a visa for Vanuatu passports now.

Q: Can I keep my current citizenship?

Vanuatu allows it. Your home country has its own rules, though, and some GCC countries restrict holding another nationality. Check yours before you apply.

Q: Do I need to live in Vanuatu?

No, not before approval or after. You do need to give biometrics, and the Vanuatu office in Dubai can take them.

Q: Is Vanuatu citizenship by investment legal?

Yes. It's an official government program, set up under Vanuatu law and run by the Citizenship Commission. Applications get vetted, and some are rejected.

Q: Will I owe tax in the Caribbean country?

Citizenship alone doesn't usually make you a tax resident there. Tax depends on where you actually live and earn, and on your home country's rules. We aren't tax advisers, so check with one before you apply.

Q: What happens if my application is rejected?

You don't make the main investment until approval in principle comes through. Government and due diligence fees may not be refundable, though, and the rules differ by program. Ask about refunds before you commit. A serious criminal record or unexplained source of funds is the most common reason for rejection.

Q: Do I have to travel to the Caribbean to apply?

Not usually. A licensed agent handles most of the process. Some programs do ask for biometrics or an interview, and the rules differ by country, so we'll tell you upfront what yours needs.

Q: Can I travel to the US or UK with a Caribbean passport?

The UK and Schengen Europe are visa-free for most of these passports. The US generally still requires a visa. Grenada's E-2 route is a separate path for investors with US business plans.

Q: Will a Caribbean passport affect my UAE residence visa?

In most cases, no. Your UAE residence stays tied to your original passport and carries on as before. A Caribbean passport adds a nationality. It doesn't replace your life in the UAE.

Q: Can GCC nationals hold a second nationality?

That depends on your home country's own laws. Some Gulf countries restrict it. Check your country's rules before you apply, and talk to us if you're unsure.
