Dominica Citizenship by investment
The Commonwealth of Dominica Citizenship by Investment program was established in 1993, making it the second citizenship by investment program in the Caribbean. The legal framework of the program falls under the [Commonwealth of Dominica Citizenship Act] allowing individuals to legally seek a citizenship through financial contribution, be it through donation or real estate investment. Dominica allows for dual nationality, and it is one of the few fast tracked citizenship routes in the world, issuing direct citizenship without residency requirements.
