Citizenship Invest

What Citizenship Invest does

Citizenship Invest is a Dubai-headquartered, privately held advisory firm founded in 2009 that specializes in citizenship-by-investment (CBI) and residency-by-investment (RBI) programs for high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals and families. The company is government-authorized to process applications in more than ten sovereign jurisdictions spanning the Caribbean (St. Kitts and Nevis, Grenada, Dominica, Antigua and Barbuda, Saint Lucia), Europe (Malta citizenship and several residency programs), Africa (São Tomé and Príncipe, Sierra Leone), Oceania and Asia (Vanuatu, Turkey, Nauru), and the Americas (USA E-2 and EB-5, Panama, UAE Golden Visa). The firm's core technology is its accumulated institutional knowledge of multi-jurisdictional due diligence, government relations, and document workflows, rather than any proprietary software product.

The company monetizes through one-time professional advisory and processing fees per application, with the underlying government investment thresholds ranging from roughly USD 90,000 (São Tomé and Príncipe) to USD 2,500,000 across its catalog. Go-to-market is consultative and high-touch: clients are sourced through a multilingual corporate website, Telegram, an Ambassador referral program, an international agent and partner network covering 100+ countries, and 11+ physical offices across the Middle East, South and Southeast Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Caribbean. The company is actively building a lifetime post-acquisition services book (passport renewal and replacement, residency visa transfer, newborn and new-spouse applications, and identification documents) intended to create a recurring touchpoint with the original HNW client base. The Board of Directors is described as combining tier-one management consulting, foreign government relations, and dual-citizenship law experience, although individual executives are not publicly identified.
