  • Article Release Date: July 14, 2025

The Era of “No Residency” Caribbean Passports Is Ending!

On July 1, five Caribbean nations reached a historic consensus, unveiling a 92-point draft agreement that marks the region’s most extensive Citizenship-by-Investment (CBI) reform to date:

Key Proposed Changes:

Residency Requirement Introduced
New CBI citizens must spend at least 30 days in the country within the first 5 years of approval.

Biometric Verification & Interviews
Stronger identity checks and possible in-person interviews for applicants.

Application Caps
Annual limits on the number of new CBI approvals per country.

Shorter Passport Validity
Initial passports valid for only 5 years, with renewals tied to compliance.

New Regional Oversight Body (EC-CIRA)
A central authority will supervise due diligence and standardization across programs.

Tougher Revocation Policies
Stricter enforcement for false declarations or non-compliant behavior.
