Questions

Answers to frequent questions about the program

No, there is no need to travel. The application is handled remotely: the oath is taken over video link and the finished passport is delivered by courier. There is no requirement to live in the country before or after citizenship is granted.

No. Visa-free access to the Schengen area was withdrawn in December 2024. If entry to Europe matters to you, it makes more sense to consider the Caribbean programs or a European residence permit. We will find an option for your goal.

Yes. Vanuatu allows dual citizenship, so there is no need to give up your existing passport. What remains is to check the rules of your own country: not every state recognises a second citizenship.

It depends on the option. Under the DSP program the contribution is not refunded: it is a dedicated contribution to the government development fund. Under the Coconut Oil Fund, $50,000 is returned after 5 years; the terms and procedure of the refund are fixed in the contract before payment.

The decision is taken by a government commission, and a refusal is possible in principle. As a rule it is linked to circumstances in the applicant’s background, so we run a preliminary check before filing and take on a case only if we see no risks.

A biometric Vanuatu passport is issued for 10 years to adults and for 5 years to children, and is then renewed. A standard non-biometric passport for 5 years is also available at the same price. The citizenship itself is permanent and does not need renewal.

The applicant, a spouse, children under 18, children aged 18-25 and parents over 50; in some cases, other dependent relatives. The contribution is based on the total number of people in the application: the base family is up to four, children under 18 are included without a separate charge, and each fifth applicant adds $26,500.

Around 2-3 months from filing the complete set of documents. What usually takes longest is not the review but collecting certificates on the applicant’s side, so we hand over the document list straight away together with the quote.

The government contribution, the due diligence fee, the Vanuatu birth certificate and local ID, biometric passports, notarised translations with apostille, and BRIDGES Global legal support. The final amount is fixed by the contract.

A valid passport, a police clearance certificate, proof of the source of funds, birth and marriage certificates, with a separate list for each applicant. The full checklist comes together with the personal quote.
