The Programme
Dominica, in plain terms.
The longest-continuously-operating CBI programme in the Caribbean, established in 1993 and refined steadily since. Dominica is known for its disciplined due-diligence process, competitive donation route, and a passport that has quietly expanded its visa-free reach across the EU and Commonwealth. For principals who value a settled, well-understood programme over the newest entrant, Dominica is often the right answer.

Frequently asked
About the Dominica programme.
01 Do I need to submit a separate Dominica Citizenship by Investment application for each family member?
No, this is not necessary. Spouses and dependent children up to 30 years old can be included in the same application to obtain Dominica citizenship by investment. You can also add your dependent parents and grandparents who are eligible.
02 How can I be sure of my investment in Dominica real estate?
Investments can only be made in a Government Approved Real Estate Project. At PassPro, we regularly visit the island and vet projects first-hand so that we can give you sound and current advice on the best projects and reputable developers. We will help check the investment contracts on your behalf, pick the best units that can be rented or sold after the holding period, and negotiate the best package for your needs.
03 What makes investing in Dominica second citizenship legal?
What makes the Dominica citizenship by investment programme legal is the presence of a Constitutional Act that prescribes how an individual can become a Dominican citizen through investment, and ensures the citizenship granted is for life — meaning no one can revoke your Dominica citizenship even if government changes in the future. The Dominica second citizenship programme requires investors to submit an application through an authorised agent and invest in government funds, government bonds, approved real estate projects, or business ventures. The applicant also has to undergo a due diligence check and prove that they have a legitimate source of funds.
04 After I obtain my Dominica citizenship, what resources are available to me for the next steps?
We believe that acquiring a second citizenship is a relationship that lasts a lifetime, not a transaction. PassPro stays with you for the lifetime of the citizenship — handling passport renewals, adding newborns and family members, consular guidance, and ongoing programme updates that affect you. No retainers, no recurring fees.
