Initial payment

The applicant must make a non-refundable initial payment of $6,000 for verification by the Government Financial Intelligence Unit in order to obtain approval. After obtaining the permit, the applicant can make and submit a complete application for citizenship.

Contribution

The applicant must make a one-time non-refundable donation to the Government of Vanuatu as follows:

A new option for the investment citizenship program

According to a government bulletin published March 27, 2023, applicants for Vanuatu citizenship will also be able to invest in interest-free bonds denominated in Australian dollars. The minimum entry threshold for the new option is AUD 150,000 (USD 99,770).

Details

Maturity varies with the amount invested:

○ 3 years for AUD 150,000 in bond purchases,

○ 2.5 years - AUD 170,000,

○ 2 years - AUD 180,000.

Additional innovations.

The government will also appoint a single general agent for the new option, the Investment-Government Bond Option (IGBO).

The agent, not the government, will accept applications from bond investors, so there will be an additional processing fee of USD 5,000 plus fees depending on the number of applicants in the package:

○ principal applicant - USD 13,366;

○ couple - USD 20,049.

Each additional dependent is AUD 7,500 (USD 5,012).

Vanuatu has also prohibited permanent residents of countries that are under Western restrictive measures and UN sanctions from applying for the investment citizenship program.

Approval

Once the contribution is made and the application is submitted, the Citizenship Commission will issue final approval. The applicant can then attend a swearing-in ceremony as a citizen of Vanuatu. The swearing-in ceremony can take place abroad.
