Citizenship
Why Dominica
The Commonwealth of Dominica Citizenship by Investment Programme grants citizenship to qualifying applicants and eligible family members in return for a qualifying investment set out in the Citizenship by Investment Regulations. There are two routes: a non-refundable contribution to the Economic Diversification Fund, starting at US$200,000 for a single applicant, or the purchase of pre-approved real estate at a minimum of US$200,000. Applications must be submitted to the CBIU through an Authorised Agent.
Why Dominica
Dominica is a Caribbean parliamentary republic. Official CBIU materials describe the programme as one of the longer-running CBI options, with due diligence, a mandatory interview for applicants aged 16 and over, and citizenship that may be held alongside another nationality. The CBIU lists no wealth, gift, inheritance, foreign-income, or capital-gains tax for citizens who do not reside in Dominica.
Investment routes
The Economic Diversification Fund supports public and private projects. The CBIU publishes EDF contributions of US$200,000 for the main applicant, or US$250,000 for the main applicant and up to three qualifying dependants, plus US$25,000 for each further dependant under 18 and US$40,000 for each further dependant aged 18 or older. The real-estate route requires a unit in an Approved Project of at least US$200,000, held for three years (five years if later sold to another CBI applicant), with separate government fees from US$75,000 for a single applicant.
How 4Corporate supports you
You do not have to navigate a foreign citizenship file on your own. We help you choose the programme that fits, prepare a complete application, and coordinate filing through licensed authorised agents. After grant, we stay with you for the practical side of arriving if you make that country home — obtaining the necessities there, all the way to settling in. A private consultation maps that path before anything is filed.
