If you want to get a second passport as soon as possible, at reasonable costs, you should consider jurisdictions in the Caribbean. Despite claims in many misleading online resources, the procedure of acquiring residence by investment in the European Union is not faster. In fact, it takes even longer than to obtain Caribbean citizenship or, for example, the investor passport in Montenegro. There is no such thing as the fast track to economic citizenship in the EU: the process takes at least a year. You can get the Caribbean Golden Visa in 1.5 - 3 months. However, EU Golden Visas remain very attractive for investors planning a relocation to Europe.
