European Citizenship by Investment programs offer a process by which investors can obtain a second citizenship within a few months. This process typically requires an investment or a donation. It can be considered a business transaction where you invest, and in return, you are granted citizenship. Some people refer to it as “EU economic citizenship.”
Compared to other methods of obtaining European Union citizenship, this route can potentially save you over ten years in the process.
The top benefits of acquiring a second passport include visa-free travel, relief from tax burdens, enhanced privacy and freedom, access to investment opportunities, political diversification, and increased security.
