Dominica Citizenship Program

Dominica’s Economic Citizenship Program was established in 1993. The Economic Citizenship Program is enshrined in the constitution (Section 101). Investors may obtain citizenship by making a real estate investment in an approved project. Dominica’s citizenship may be obtained without language, residence or visitation requirements.

To maintain citizenship, investors are required to hold their qualifying investment for a period of three years, after which they may sell it.
