Vanuatu CBI: fast, lower-cost, and relatively simple
For clients looking for a fast second-citizenship route with a lighter document burden, Vanuatu can be compared against Sao Tome, Turkey, and Caribbean options. The correct starting point is eligibility screening, not payment.
Iranian nationality warning: Vanuatu is not currently promoted here as a direct route for Iranian nationals. If the applicant has long-term permanent residence outside Iran, the case still needs written pre-clearance before we treat it as viable.
