North Macedonia has a citizenship by investment route on its books, but its practical status is contested. This page sets out what is reported for Bangladeshi nationals and points you to the official source.
Information, not advice. Figures are indicative and current as of June 2026. Always confirm the present rules with the official program authority and a licensed professional before you act.
There is no published rule that singles out Bangladeshi nationals for exclusion from the route. In practice, applicants from any country are subject to strict due diligence, and the contested status of the programme matters more than nationality for anyone weighing this option.
Because the route is questioned in practice, confirm before you commit any funds that the programme is open, that your nationality is accepted and that the agency will process and complete applications. Confirm the current position with the official authority.
Two routes are reported. The first is a donation of EUR 200,000 to a government approved private development fund. The second is a direct investment of EUR 400,000 in a new business that creates at least ten jobs. An annual quota is reported, allowing a limited number of approvals each year.
The donation is given rather than invested, so it is not recoverable. Given the doubts over whether the donation route has produced completed citizenships, confirm the routes, the quota and the track record with the official authority.
Marketing material has suggested a fast timeline, but reporting indicates that approvals under the donation route have been limited or absent. A pre approval that clears due diligence is not the same as a granted citizenship.
Because the practical timeline is uncertain, do not rely on any advertised figure. Confirm the current position with the official authority before acting.
The headline cost is the donation or the qualifying business investment, plus due diligence, application and processing fees, and independent professional fees. We do not name or recommend firms. To compare vetted, independent advisors, use Get Matched and ask for a written scope and fee first.
Given the contested status of the route, treat the table as a checklist rather than a quote, and confirm every figure and the operating status with the official authority before acting.
| Route | Indicative amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Donation to approved fund | EUR 200,000 | Not recoverable, completion record is contested |
| Business investment | EUR 400,000 | New business creating at least ten jobs |
| Due diligence and processing fees | Confirm the current figure with the official authority | Charged per applicant |
| Professional fees | Varies by case | Set independently, get a written scope |
