Vanuatu

The Vanuatu Citizenship by Investment Program, also known as the Vanuatu Development Support Program/the Vanuatu Capital Investment Immigration Plan, grants successful applicants a Vanuatu passport—a Commonwealth passport that enables visa-free travel to numerous countries, facilitating immigration planning, overseas asset management, and global travel. The program is renowned for its rapid processing time of just two months, is the fastest and most popular route for Vanuatu immigration. It is the ONLY CBI program that accepts Russian applicants and has successful cases.
