Turkish nationals can apply for Dominica citizenship by investment. This page explains the routes, the likely timeline and where to confirm the binding figures.
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.
Turkish nationals are eligible to apply. Dominica does not publish a general ban on Turkish applicants. In March 2026 the programme suspended processing for Iranian nationals, with narrow exceptions, but that measure does not apply to Turkish citizens.
Every applicant must pass the due diligence checks run for the CBIU, regardless of nationality. A clean background, a lawful source of funds and complete documents are the practical conditions that matter most.
Two main routes lead to citizenship. The first is a non refundable contribution to the Economic Diversification Fund. The second is a qualifying investment in pre approved real estate. Both deliver the same citizenship once approved.
The fund route is the simpler of the two because there is no property to manage or resell. The real estate route can return capital over time but carries holding periods and resale conditions set by the authority.
The CBIU publishes a standard processing time of three to six months for complete, properly documented applications. Complex profiles or incomplete files take longer. Confirm the current target with the official authority.
Indicative figures are below. The fund contribution and the real estate threshold are the headline numbers. Add government, due diligence and professional fees, which vary with family size. Confirm every figure with the CBIU before you act.
Dominica citizenship is held for life and can pass to future generations. It gives a second passport and the standing of a Commonwealth citizen. Visa free or visa on arrival access changes over time, so check the current position before relying on any travel claim.
