🇦🇬 Antigua and Barbuda Citizenship by Investment
Â
Real Estate Investment Option
Antigua and Barbuda offers one of the Caribbean’s most respected Citizenship by Investment (CBI) Programs — a government-run initiative that allows qualified foreign investors and their families to gain full citizenship in exchange for a meaningful contribution to the country’s economy. The program is managed by the Citizenship by Investment Unit (CIU), the official authority established by the Government to oversee all applications and ensure compliance with legal and due-diligence standards.Â
How the Real Estate Option Works
Under the real estate route, applicants can qualify for citizenship by purchasing property in a pre-approved development project in Antigua and Barbuda. This pathway leads to full citizenship and a passport, offering global mobility and a secure long-term investment.Â
Key Requirements
Minimum Investment: US$300,000 in approved real estate.Â
Holding Period: The property must be held for at least 5 years before it can be resold — unless the investor buys another approved property within that period.Â
Application: Citizenship applications are submitted once a binding sale agreement is signed on an approved property.Â
Fees: Applicants must pay the government processing fees and due diligence fees as part of the application process.Â
Benefits of the Real Estate Route
This option is popular because it offers both a tangible asset and the chance to obtain citizenship in a stable, peaceful Caribbean nation known for its stunning beaches, tropical climate, and high quality of life. Property types include luxury residences, resort villas, and other approved developments with strong appeal to international investors.Â
When approved, this route grants the investor and eligible family members full citizenship rights, including the right to live, work, and study in Antigua and Barbuda. Many investors also enjoy potential rental income and capital growthfrom their property.Â
Who Can Apply
To be eligible, applicants must:
Be 18 years or older.
Meet strict due diligence and background checks.
Choose one qualifying investment option — the real estate route being one of the most sought-after.
