Citizenship by Investment (CBI) programs often provide significant tax benefits for global investors. Depending on the chosen country, second citizenship can offer reduced tax liability, simplified wealth transfer, and enhanced privacy for personal and corporate assets.
At Visa Applications, we assess how each CBI jurisdiction aligns with your financial goals. Our team ensures your investment and residency structure complies with both the local tax laws of the chosen country and your home country’s international reporting standards.
Common Tax Advantages of Citizenship by Investment
- No Wealth or Inheritance Tax: Many Caribbean CBI nations (e.g., Dominica, Antigua & Barbuda) do not impose estate or inheritance taxes.
- No Capital Gains or Dividend Tax: Programs in Saint Lucia and Grenada allow tax-free global income under certain conditions.
- No Worldwide Income Tax: Malta and Cyprus operate favourable residency-based tax regimes for non-domiciled individuals.
- Corporate Tax Incentives: CBI citizens can benefit from low or zero corporate tax rates when structuring international business operations.
Key Jurisdictions with Tax-Friendly Policies
- Antigua & Barbuda: No capital gains, inheritance, or wealth tax.
- Grenada: No foreign income or inheritance tax; potential for E-2 Visa treaty access to the U.S.
- Malta: Attractive remittance-based taxation system for non-domiciled individuals.
- Vanuatu: No personal income tax and minimal corporate tax requirements.
Ensuring Compliance
Our team works with qualified international tax specialists to ensure that your new citizenship complies with both FATCA and CRS regulations. All investments and financial transfers are documented through verified channels.
