Overview

Renunciation is a request to give up Vanuatu citizenship. It is difficult to undo, and it can affect your right to hold a passport from that country. We do not lodge it until you have confirmed, in writing, that you want to proceed.

We prepare the papers the authority requires, file them when you say so, and send you the confirmation once the renunciation is accepted.

What's included

  • A written confirmation from you before anything is filed
  • Preparation of the renunciation papers
  • Filing with the Vanuatu authority
  • The authority’s confirmation, once it accepts the renunciation

Process

  1. Tell us why you are considering renunciation and send your passport scan.
  2. We explain the papers required and send the quote. Nothing is filed yet.
  3. After your written confirmation, the renunciation is lodged.

Fees

Price on request

You receive a quote before any filing starts. It separates the CitizenX fee from government charges, courier costs, and legalization. Those extras are added only when they apply, and only after you approve them.

Government and third-party charges are confirmed in the quote when they apply.

Questions

Yes, up to the point we lodge it. We do not file until you confirm in writing.

Usually yes, once the renunciation is accepted. We confirm the authority’s instruction before you send the original.
