Citizenship

Why Vanuatu

The Vanuatu Development Support Program (DSP), established in 2017, grants full citizenship and passport rights to qualifying applicants and their families. Vanuatu has a long-standing history with citizenship programmes, making it one of the more established jurisdictions in the citizenship-by-investment landscape.

Why Vanuatu

Vanuatu is a sovereign Pacific island nation offering political stability, a tax-efficient environment, and visa-free access to 87 destinations (Henley Passport Index, April 2026), including Singapore and Hong Kong. The country provides a streamlined citizenship process with no physical presence requirement and full right to reside.

Ni-Vanuatu Citizenship

The Ni-Vanuatu citizenship is hereditary and passes to future generations. Recipients hold the complete rights of a Vanuatu citizen, and the Vanuatu passport is valid for 10 years and renewable upon expiry. The program is administered through EC Holdings (Vanuatu) Ltd, the local, government-appointed citizenship agent.

Vanuatu Citizenship

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.

Advantages

Tax, location and daily life

Tax

Vanuatu is described in the catalogue as offering a tax-efficient environment. This landing does not publish personal-tax rates; application to your residence and assets is confirmed in consultation.

Location

Vanuatu is a sovereign Pacific island nation. Citizenship is hereditary. There is no physical presence requirement during or after the application, with a full right to reside.

Healthcare

Travel-health notes typically describe local care as limited, with specialist or complex cases referred abroad.

Travel

Visa-free access to 87 destinations including Singapore and Hong Kong (Henley Passport Index, April 2026), plus visa-free transit in Australia. Direct flight connections are published from Sydney, Brisbane, Auckland and Fiji.

Cost of living

Independent cost-of-living indexes typically describe Vanuatu as close to or above the United States for some baskets, because fuel, groceries and consumer goods are imported across the Pacific. Local produce and simpler housing sit well below that imported-goods premium.
