Migrate World

What Migrate World does

Migrate World is a Dubai-headquartered, privately held investment migration facilitator founded in 2007 by CEO Moe Alhaj. The company advises and processes applications for citizenship by investment (CBI) and residency by investment (RCBI) programs across roughly 40 countries spanning the Caribbean (Antigua & Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, St. Kitts & Nevis, St. Lucia), Europe (Malta citizenship; Portugal, Greece, Malta, Spain, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Hungary, Germany, UK residency), North America (USA, Canada), and the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar, plus newer Central Asian jurisdictions). It is also authorized to handle passport renewals in nine countries and offers bundled company formation, real estate, legal, financial, and student services. Migrate World operates a sales-led GTM with dedicated relationship managers, a free-initial-consultation entry point, and physical offices in 25+ cities, supported by a referral/partnership program targeting wealth managers and family offices.

Its core technology is a website-based "Digital Application Management System" that manages the application workflow, document verification, and biometric data capture. Since 2015 it has extended this stack into a managed-services offering that processes visa applications, passport identity management, digitalization, and biometric collection on behalf of governments and diplomatic missions under contract. The primary revenue streams are fixed-fee professional consulting engagements for CBI/RCBI applications and government outsourcing contracts for visa and identity-management processing; deal sizes are anchored by program thresholds of $100K–$250K for citizenship files and €168K–€280K for EU residency files. Differentiators include Authorized Representative licenses from three Caribbean CBI Units (2022), a first-of-its-kind partnership with the Sultanate of Oman Ministry of Commerce, Industry & Investment Promotion for the 10-Year Oman Golden Visa (2025), and an 18-year operating history with a stated 4.9-star client rating.

Customer segments are HNW individuals and families seeking second citizenship or residency, business investors requiring company formation in foreign jurisdictions, and regional migrants in MENA and Southeast Asia pursuing Canada/UK/USA immigration pathways. Concentrated exposure to discretionary, geopolitically sensitive HNW demand creates episodic, deal-driven revenue with processing cycles of 1–24 months depending on program.
