Investors do not come to Antigua and Barbuda to get citizenship. A licensed agent like Immigrant Invest submits documents on the investor’s behalf, and all procedures are remote. Even the oath can be taken at the country’s nearest consulate. The Citizenship Certificate and passport are sent to the address provided by the investor.
However, the CBI programme has a condition: the investor must visit the country for at least 5 days within the first 5 years of citizenship. In our experience, investors use this time for holidays in a tropical paradise and spend more than 5 days on the islands. Some programme participants plan to visit Antigua and Barbuda aboard a cruise liner.
