Turkish second citizenship can be obtained for such an option as the purchase of residential property in the amount of 400,000. Moreover, it is possible to sell such real estate in three years, while retaining citizenship. It is important to weigh whether or not this program meets your personal goals. Investors may apply together with the spouse and children under 18 years of age.
In February 2022, it became possible to apply for Turkish citizenship by investments under the current program remotely, as individuals no longer need to arrive in Turkey first, open an account with a Turkish bank, or visit the Turkish consulate and without arriving in Turkey. This is a significant argument now in favor of choosing this program.
In March 2023, the authorities lowered the minimum amount of investment in real estate from $500,000 to $300,000. And now applicants may pay for the investment in cash, if legally imported through any customs point on the Egyptian border. At the moment, the processing of applications is quite well developed. Unlike what was at the start, when this second citizenship program was launched in 2020. To start the procedure, it is enough to pay a fixed government fee of $10,000. And this amount does not depend on the number of dependents in the application.
The program of obtaining passports by investments was discontinued on November 1, 2020. Please take a closer look at Permanent residence permit (Fast track) by investments (Cyprus “Golden Visa”) as an option.
MEIN. New program of Malta
Law on the “MEIN” program was released in November 2020, which allows individuals to obtain Malta’s citizenship through naturalization for a special contribution. The terms of the MEIN program, among other acceptable options, include investments in the economy of Malta. In fact, this is the only current program that directly leads to the citizenship of an EU country. It would take at least 16 months to get this passport by investments. After obtaining citizenship of Malta, it will be possible to live, study and work in Malta or in any other EU country. Take advantage of the opportunity of visa-free entry to 183 countries of the world, including the USA and the UK. The statement can include the spouse, children under 29 years old, parents, grandparents.
The program offers to invest (from 250 thousand euros) in government-approved real estate in different parts of the country. Montenegro’s passport allows you to become an EU citizen with all due rights in the future. Montenegro is slated to join the European Union, no later than in 2025. It would take from 4 up to 6 months to obtain a Montenegrin passport. Having a second citizenship of Montenegro, you can travel without visa to 120 countries. Including the countries of the Schengen zone. And as a citizen of Montenegro, you can obtain a business non-immigrant visa E2 to the United States.
As of January 1, 2023, Montenegro does not accept new applications for the citizenship by investment program.
Owning a UK passport allows you to live and assimilate in the UK, as well as visit more than 170 countries without a visa. And of course, businessmen will be pleased with a loyal taxation system. The period during which you will obtain citizenship depends on the value of the investment contribution. It can be 5-6 years, and a residence permit can be obtained after 2 years (with a deposit of £10 million).
In February 2022, the Tier 1 program was completely frozen due to suspicions of abuse and financial fraud.
Benefits of second citizenship
Obtaining a second citizenship for an investment gives many advantages, among them:
Visa-free travel
The value of the second passport is determined by the number of countries that can be visited without additional visa documents.
The right of residence
The second passport makes it possible, if necessary, to immigrate to the country chosen for residence.
Tax planning
The second passport allows to take advantage of certain tax benefits. For example, become a tax resident according to the rules of the country.
Social infrastructure
Second citizenship by investment equates to normal. Thus, the new citizen is facilitated access to educational, medical and other programs. And of course, restrictions on the purchase of real estate are eliminated. And also bans on doing business that are imposed on foreigners.
