EU Citizenship through Investment
The primary bases for the acquisition of citizenship are
  • Birth within a certain sovereign territory
  • Descent from a citizen parent
  • Marriage to a citizen
  • Naturalization.

While naturalization is a privilege granted on conditions varying from State to State, family relationships or extended residence are usually essential. This of course is apart from the requirement of character. Although individuals can acquire residence through investment, the process is complex and not available in many states. There are, however nations that offer citizenship-for-investment or Economic Citizenship Programs. In order to attract foreign direct investment, several countries had citizenship on offer, in return for tangible investment on the part of an individual. These countries include Ireland and Grenada until 2001, and Belize until 2002, amongst others.

For individuals with a substantial investment capacity, Austrian citizenship is an option, although the number of nationalizations granted each year is far and few. Therefore, we recommend Cyprus which offers a very attractive, straightforward and fast-track citizenship scheme. Please contact us to get more details on EU citizenship through investment programme in Cyprus and to discuss how we can help you obtain an EU citizenship.
