Getting Antigua and Barbuda Citizenship by Investment for your Family: Ultimate Guide (2024)

Bahamian Citizenship by Investment

The Antigua and Barbuda Citizenship by Investment Program is known for offering a unique opportunity to extend the branches of your family tree into a world-class destination, not just for you, but for your loved ones as well.

The dual-island nation of Antigua and Barbuda not only offers some of the most cost-effective routes for families to acquire Caribbean citizenship, but it's also one of the most flexible Caribbean CBI programs in terms of who you can include during and after your application.

However, before embarking on this journey, you should be aware of the limitations – as well as the possibilities – of this highly sought-after citizenship program.
