Clarify the objective
Mobility, optionality, family security, timeline, and whether citizenship, residency, or doing nothing is the better tool.
Six destinations one serious decision
Start with your reality What do you need a second passport to do?
Before the contribution, the agent, and the paperwork, decide what you are actually buying.
Citizenship by investment
Is citizenship by investment right for your family?
Citizenship by investment can provide a legal route to a second passport, but the advertised contribution is only the starting point. Your nationality, family members, source of funds, due-diligence history, and total budget determine which programs are realistic. Expatriator organizes those facts before you speak with an agent.
Private by default Your answers stay in Expatriator unless you explicitly approve a short summary for outside review.
Reality check first Budget, source of funds, timing, family members, nationality, and risk flags before anyone sells you a route.
No guarantees, no pressure You get structured triage, not promises about approval, tax results, visa-free access, or processing times.
How it works
How the citizenship by investment fit check works
Every citizenship by investment program has its own contribution rules, fees, family definitions, and due-diligence standards. The lowest advertised price rarely describes the full cost. This fit check turns a general interest in a second passport into a structured decision about whether a program deserves closer professional review.
Check the practical constraints
Budget range, liquid funds, source-of-funds readiness, included family members, nationality, travel history, and likely risk flags.
Decide whether to escalate
If there is a credible fit, Expatriator can prepare a short summary. You decide whether it goes to an outside specialist.
Good use cases
- You have a realistic six-figure budget and want to compare citizenship by investment programs without a sales-first call.
- You need to compare citizenship versus residency-by-investment routes.
- Your family structure or nationality makes program choice non-obvious.
- You want to speak to a specialist only after the basics are organized.
Probably not a fit
- You are looking for a cheap or guaranteed passport.
- You cannot document source of funds.
- You need tax, sanctions, criminal, or complex legal advice before basic triage.
- You want us to promise acceptance, timing, or visa-free access.
