About This Site

What this site publishes

One programme, described in full: citizenship under the Development Support Programme. The contribution tiers as regulation sets them, the due diligence fee shown separately because it behaves differently, the document requirements ordered by which of them actually determines a timetable, and the destination list with the method behind the count.

The number everyone quotes and nobody explains

Our travel figure is 88 destinations: visa-free entry plus visa on arrival, with partially recognised territories included. Counts that pass one hundred tend to add the forty or so countries issuing electronic visas, which are paid applications rather than free entry, or they date from before 2023. On 4 February 2023 the European Union suspended visa-free access, a measure made permanent by Regulation (EU) 2025/11, adopted on 19 December 2024 and in effect from 3 February 2025, and the United Kingdom imposed a visa requirement on 19 July 2023. Much of what is published elsewhere still ignores both changes.

The question this site exists to answer

Most people arrive asking whether they have to live in Vanuatu. They do not. The ten-year residence rule that turns up in search results belongs to ordinary naturalisation and has nothing to do with the investment route, which requires no residence; the two in-person moments are the passport biometrics and the oath. Saying that clearly, once, is worth more than another page of general description.

Where we stop

When the Citizenship Office has published a number, we use it and credit the source. When sources contradict one another, we explain how the arrangement works and leave the figures out. You will not find client names, case studies, success rates or a firm history here: a reader has no means of checking any of them, and a claim nobody can verify is worth less than an openly admitted gap.

Who this is for

Someone weighing a second citizenship who wants the measurement rather than the sales figure, including readers who will conclude that this passport adds little to the one they already hold. Knowing that before paying is the point of publishing it.
