CitizenX is now an official partner of the Government of El Salvador as a licensed processor for the groundbreaking Adopting El Salvador Program – the world's fastest citizenship initiative, offering a fast track to the Salvadoran passport in under 6 weeks in exchange of a $1m donation in Bitcoin or USDt.
We’ve been closely watching El Salvador’s current administration as it takes steps to restore individual freedom and ensure the country’s prosperous future.
After making Bitcoin a legal tender and reducing all Bitcoin capital gains taxes to zero, it was a logical next step to invite supporters to join the country’s renaissance and launch the first-of-its-kind Bitcoin-native Citizenship by Investment program.
This is currently the fastest citizenship program available in the world, and as an official partner, CitizenX now offers a private and secure application process through a seamless integration with the government of El Salvador.
Through our secure and private platform, you can can navigate the process with unprecedented efficiency. The program features:
- Swift Processing: Passports delivered in under 6 weeks – the fastest citizenship program globally.
- Family Inclusion: Coverage for spouses and children under 18.
- Flexible Payment: $1 million donation in Bitcoin or USDt, with $999,000 paid only after approval.
- Minimal Requirements: No residency or visit mandates, with passport collection available at eligible consulates.
Required documentation includes standard identification (passport, driver's license), proof of address, birth certificate, police clearance certificate, and proof of funds and more.

The positioning of the program is not about maximizing the revenue per citizen, but positioning the country as a freedom haven.
The Freedom Passport attracts entrepreneurs and investors who believe in and want to be part of the long-term success of the nation, and are willing to put their capital where their mouth is.
El Salvador kick-started a movement where sovereign nations can finance themselves directly from citizens, using Bitcoin.
Additionally, Tether's implementation and financial rails enable an efficient due diligence processes that makes this program the fastest in the world. Something many other countries can learn from.
