Antigua & Barbuda Citizenship by Investment Program
by XIPHIAS IMMIGRATION migration executiveAntigua & Barbuda is an archipelago
country located in the place where the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea meet.
The country has 2 big islands and many smaller islands attached. The country
introduced its Antigua
and Barbuda Passport by Investment program to provide funding for the
internal development projects of the country. This program requires the
interested investor to contribute actively to the country to qualify for the
citizenship program. It also requires that the investor goes through a secured
registered immigration agent to submit application. One such firm is XIPHIAS Immigration.
The investor along with immediate family
can obtain the country’s citizenship and the future generations will obtain the
same through naturalization unless the individual decides otherwise. It doesn’t
require the investor to live in Antigua & Barbuda at any given point of
time.
The tax regime of the country is very
beneficial for the investor. There is limited to no taxes levied on the various
incomes. The country has less pollution and has amazing weather all through the
year. The country is a breather as it has healthy marine animal life and is
place for some amazing rare flora and fauna. The country is healthy to live and
provides great facilities for the citizens here.
The investor will have to be of 18 years
age and above and should be a person of sound character with no criminal
background. The investor should provide medical certificate showing that the
investor has sound health.
The investor to qualify for the program is
provided with three paths wherein he/she can choose what best suits their
requirement. One of the pathways is investment in purchase of pre-approved real
estate of the country. This requires the investor to invest a minimum of USD
$200,000 in the property chosen. Now the investor can partner with another
investor for the same property. However, each of the investor will be
contributing a USD $200,000 and more and each of their application will be
processed separately. This property should be held on by the investor for a
minimum of 5 years period. An additional fee of USD $30,000 will be charged for
processing for a family of 4 and below. For every additional dependent an
additional fee of USD $15,000 will be charged. XIPHIAS Immigration apart from
being a registered immigration agent with the country is also a partner with
many real estate houses there and thus can provide the right options available
for the investor to choose from. The Citizenship by Investment Unit handles the
processing. The process is delicately handled just as the St.Kitts
and Nevis Second Citizenship Program.
The other option for the investor is to
invest in the direct business of Antigua and Barbuda which requires a minimum
investment of USD $1.5million. However, joint partners can choose to buy a
business, where each partner investor invests a minimum of USD $400,000. And
this should total to a minimum of USD $5 million.
Alternatively, the investor can make a
contribution to the National Development Fund (NDF) a sum of USD $100,000. This
is specially made to fund Government projects for the development of the
country.
