New Prices: New Era

The revamped Caribbean Citizenship by Investment (CBI) programs mark a new chapter in global citizenship. With the introduction of new prices, these programs will be modernized and upgraded to better meet and exceed client demands. The enhanced investment thresholds reflect the Caribbean’s commitment to delivering exceptional value and addressing the growing need for global mobility and individual sovereignty.

The upgrades have already begun

Significant key changes have been applied to the Antigua and Barbuda CBI program, effective August 1, 2024, to enhance flexibility and inclusivity for applicants, streamline the application process, and ensure the program meets evolving client demands. These changes include:

• Dependents now include biological or legally adopted children of the main applicant and their spouse, up to age 30.
• Spouses of dependents can be added if they marry after application approval, provided they are under 35 at the time of application.
• Applicants can designate another family member as an alternate main applicant during the application process.
