Who can apply for Vanuatu citizenship by investment?
Any person of good character, aged 18 years or older, with no criminal record, who meets the financial requirements can apply. You can include your spouse, dependent children under 25, and dependent parents over 50 in your application.
Is there a residency requirement for Vanuatu citizenship?
No. Vanuatu does not require you to visit or reside in the country before, during, or after your application. The entire process can be completed remotely.
*Please note that biometrics for your passport are required and must be given at the Vanuatu Immigration Office in Port Vila, or at the Dubai or Hong Kong Consulate, with more locations coming on frequently.
Do I need to speak English or know Vanuatu's history to become a citizen?
No language tests or cultural assessments are required. The process is fully document-based with no interviews or exams.
How long does the Vanuatu citizenship process take?
The Vanuatu programme is the fastest globally, with most applications completed within 45–60 days from submission to passport delivery.
Do I need to travel to Vanuatu during the application process?
No travel to Vanuatu is required for the application itself. However, you will need to travel to provide biometrics — in Asia, the closest office is the Hong Kong Consulate. Your passport is then delivered by secure courier.
What are the investment options for Vanuatu citizenship?
You can choose the DSP (non-redeemable donation starting at $130,000) or the Vanuatu Impact Fund ($115,000 government fee + $50,000 redeemable investment).
What are the total costs including fees?
For a single applicant, the total cost is $135,000 including all fees. For a family of four, costs start from $165,000.
Is the investment redeemable?
The DSP donation is non-redeemable. The CIP investment component is fully redeemable after four years, with any interest and capital gains returned.
What countries can I travel to visa-free with a Vanuatu passport?
You'll have visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 100+ countries, including Singapore, Hong Kong, and many Commonwealth nations.
What are the tax benefits of Vanuatu citizenship?
Vanuatu has no income, capital gains, inheritance, or wealth tax. It also doesn't participate in automatic tax exchange treaties.
How strict is the due diligence process?
Vanuatu conducts full background checks, including criminal, financial, and source-of-funds verification to ensure applicant integrity.
Could my application be rejected?
Rejections are rare if you meet all criteria. Stanford Knight conducts a pre-screen to ensure your eligibility before submission.
Why choose Stanford Knight over other agencies?
Our founders designed Vanuatu's citizenship by investment programme alongside the government in 2012. That means no middlemen, priority processing, and exclusive access to the Vanuatu Impact Fund investment pathway. We've maintained a 100% application success rate and charge no additional agent fees.
Do you provide support after citizenship is granted?
Yes, including passport renewals, adding family members, and advice on doing business or relocating to Vanuatu.
