Antigua and Barbuda is another Caribbean country offering citizenship in exchange for investment. The minimum requirement is a $230,000 real estate investment or a $100,000 contribution to the National Development Fund. In addition to the visa-free travel benefits associated with most Caribbean passports, Antigua’s program requires applicants to spend at least five days in the country within the first five years. This stipulation ensures a degree of connection to the islands, distinguishing it slightly from more hands-off programs. For many, the appeal lies in Antigua’s natural beauty, stable political environment, and favorable tax policies.
