Bayraktar Attorneys helps foreign investors and their families obtain a second citizenship in Dominica, known as the Nature Isle of the Caribbean. We advise on the investment routes, prepare your file through an authorized agent, and manage the application from the first consultation to your passport, all in English.
Established on a legal basis in 1993, the Dominica program is one of the oldest, most affordable and most respected of its kind. You keep your current citizenship and the process is handled entirely remotely. Amounts and rules are set by the government and can change; we confirm the current requirements in your consultation.
Talk to an English-speaking lawyer about the program today. The first consultation is free and there is no obligation.
Applications cannot be filed by an individual directly; they must go through a government-approved authorized agent, with documents prepared to a strict standard. We manage the whole process, so nothing is missed.
Our support includes:
Dominica offers two main routes. Minimum amounts were updated in 2024 in line with joint decisions among the Caribbean programs. These amounts and rules are set by the government and can change; we confirm current figures in your consultation.
A non-refundable contribution to a state fund that supports national development, including hospitals, schools and infrastructure. This is generally the fastest and most direct route, with the least bureaucracy, currently from around USD 200,000.
Purchase of a share or title in a government-approved development, such as a hotel, eco-resort or villa project, from around USD 200,000 plus government fees. The property is held for around 3 to 5 years, after which you can sell it and recover your capital while keeping your citizenship.
Dominica combines low cost with a strong, simple process. The main advantages are:
The program is open to applicants who meet the government's conditions. In general you should have:
After you file, the government carries out thorough due diligence through independent firms and issues a preliminary approval letter. You then make your investment, and the certificate and passport follow. The whole process is usually completed within 4 to 6 months.
Dominica allows full dual citizenship and the status is inheritable, so it passes to future generations. If you are comparing established programs, we also advise on Saint Kitts and Nevis citizenship and Grenada citizenship.
We review your criminal record, family and budget, confirm eligibility, and decide whether the fund or real estate route suits you.
We collect birth and marriage certificates, bank references, health reports and source-of-wealth documents, then translate and apostille them.
