Eligibility for this nationality

Indian nationals may apply for Dominica citizenship by investment. No nationality bar is reported for Indian applicants, though every applicant is subject to due diligence.

Applicants must be at least eighteen, hold a clean criminal record, show the lawful source of their funds and pass the mandatory background checks. Confirm the current requirements with the Citizenship by Investment Unit.

Routes

There are two main routes. The first is a contribution to the Economic Diversification Fund, a government fund. The minimum contribution for a single applicant is widely cited at 200,000 US dollars, with higher amounts for a family.

The second is the purchase of government approved real estate, with the widely cited entry level also at 200,000 US dollars held for a minimum period. Government fees, due diligence fees and processing fees apply on top. Confirm the route and the current figures with the official authority.

Timeline

Applications are assessed by the Citizenship by Investment Unit, which conducts due diligence before any approval. Processing depends on the file and on checks, so treat any quoted period as indicative and confirm with the official authority.
