Eligibility for Nigerian nationals

Nigerian citizens are eligible to apply. The tax residency route, known as the High Value Resident programme, is open to applicants who can meet the property and annual payment requirements and pass due diligence. There is no blanket exclusion of Nigerian nationals.

Applicants establish genuine links to Anguilla. We do not name or recommend firms. Use Get Matched to compare vetted advisors for your situation.

Routes

The High Value Resident programme grants tax residency. An applicant owns and maintains Anguilla property valued above USD 400,000, pays a fixed annual tax of USD 75,000, spends at least 45 days a year in Anguilla, commits for a minimum of five years, and declares each year that they spend fewer than 183 days in any other single country.

Anguilla levies no income tax, capital gains tax, inheritance tax or corporate tax. Separately, a permanent residence route exists through a Capital Development Fund contribution or higher value real estate, which is distinct from this tax residency route. Confirm the current terms with the official authority.

Timeline

The duration depends on due diligence and document completeness, after which the annual obligations begin. Confirm current processing expectations and the annual requirements with Select Anguilla.

Costs

The defining cost is the fixed annual tax payment, alongside the qualifying property you must own and maintain. Government and due diligence fees apply separately. Use the table as a checklist and confirm each current figure with the official authority.
