How to obtain Dominica citizenship by investment: step‑by ‑step process
Preliminary check
A compliance officer at Passportivity conducts an initial review of the investor to prepare for the program department’s Due Diligence. This check is necessary to identify possible reasons for refusal of Dominica citizenship and to find a solution.
The preliminary check is fully confidential. The investor fills in a questionnaire and provides a copy of their passport and tax number.
Document preparation
The investor collects the documents required for citizenship and submits them to Passportivity.
Lawyers translate and prepare the documents for submission, complete government forms, and assist the investor in obtaining certain certificates. The documents are then sent to the Dominica citizenship department.
Application submission and Due Diligence
The investor pays the Due Diligence fee and other government charges.
The department specialists then verify the information about the investor and their family. At the final stage of the check, the investor and all family members over 16 take part in an online interview.
Fulfilment of the investment requirement
If the Due Diligence is successful, the investor receives an official approval letter. After that, they transfer the funds according to the chosen program option.
Issuance of documents 🔥
The investor and their family members receive naturalisation certificates and passports. The passport validity is 5 years for children under 16 and ten years for older applicants. After expiry, the documents must be renewed.
