Wanka waka nah nah nah 🎶🎵🎶
Nah, I’m used to annoying music on TH-cam posts already. Kinda miss them. Please put Slipknot as background music in louder volume, for maximum irritation to the viewers.
@@nomadcapitalist no music was a positive

This simple yet significant change has greatly improved the quality of your videos.
I have dual citizenship and two passports, Norway and Sweden. Can’t tell you how free I was during COVID when Norway went on lockdown and Sweden was pretty much the only country in the world that did virtually zero restrictions. I decided to move back to Sweden and kept working in Norway remotely, and I could still travel freely into Norway whenever I had to. So I can tell you from experience, having multiple passports and dual citizenship is truly worth it! 🇳🇴🇸🇪
Thanks for sharing your experience!
Mexico also have ZERO restrictions
@@adrianaledezma6920 yea but why not much people want their passport?
I'm a resident of Qatar. We also pretty much had zero restrictions. Of course, its next to impossible to get a Qatari passport though.
Correct me if I'm wrong but couldn't you have done the exact same thing on just a Swedish passport?
"You want to feel something you connect with..." is an important insight. Part of the interest in watching these videos is Andrew sharing his personal evolution from, essentially, living out of a suitcase as a PT in his twenties, to his trifecta approach, to now contemplating a place that could, maybe, if the chips were down in a black swan-type event, be a semi-permanent home base. Impressive self-revelation. Pretty brave, too.
Ireland is where I left my heart. I’m just an empty shell in America. Working on citizenship by descent in another EU country and wading through the bureaucracy. I hope I can make it back before I die because I want to die in Ireland!! ❤
Excellent point of view mate 😂
I also like this comment.
You might find the landscape has changed a bit. Currently being overrun with fakeugees. Look at what's currently happening in France- Ireland is next in line.
Ireland is going to 💩 Do yourself a favour a keep clear
I met a young US woman of Irish descent who said she was working on Irish citizenship since she had diabetes and would need lifelong medical care as well as she was going to university in Ireland since it was affordable. It's wise to think ahead.
One important detail he overlooks, which lead him to discard Luxembourg, and also to under-rate Belgium is native language. Many jobs, institutions, and universities require either language exams or native-speaker status for admission. Which can often be waived by presenting the right passport. US, UK, and Ireland are great for waiving English-language requirements. Luxembourgish passports can do the same towards French and German language requirements. With ONE single document.
I'm soo glad you made this videos.
I was looking for that exactly. IRELAND is a place I feel intuned with, culture wise, and I really enjoy the compagnie of my Irish friend.
Good Plan!!
I'm gonna' do this!
Thank you Andrew!
My Irish passport is scheduled to arrive in my hands within weeks! Thanks for the inspiration, Andrew!
Congratulations.
How did you get it? If I may
Isn't housing ownership crazy expensive in Ireland?
@@mariasophia383 work or inheritage.
About 6 weeks ago I found my dad's Irish birth certificate and re-applying for Irish citizenship is on my written to do list. This video has really motivated me to get on with it.
My wife is Italian - so subject to passing an Italian language exam I could remain a British citizen and become , an Irish citizen and an Italian citizen.
I think Ill stop with those three. 😀
My Top are Switzerland, Singapore, UAE, Qatar and Japan.
Thanks again for the update
Thanks so much Andrew, great video.
Glad you enjoyed it
One that i would add is Bahamas being, i think, the only passport with visa free access to both the US and China
@@infiad1275 agreed, however time doesn't really matter for the sake of the video. Most of these countries take just as long
@@guilhermesalesferreiradaco2934 his new video shows 2-3 year duration citizenship countries

The Congolese?
Andrew, Lithuania doesnt allow Dual Citizenship, unless for extremely rare exceptions, therefore you can't have multiple passports if you are a Lithuanian citizen.
If you like invading and terrorizing other counties… well sure be a Russian.
@Martian Traveller Yes I understand that. But having a Lithuanian passport as the one passport is not exactly the best for freedom following the philosophy of having multiple passports of the base of that one passport. There is no second passport option, that's my point.
Russian passport is unreal for Asia but that’s about it
You know, many european countries doesn't allow dual citizenship including my country but it doesn't interfere me to hold another 2 citizenships. Im originally from russia and it probided me russian citizenship by birth and since i moved to Spain at sufficiently early childhood i became a citizen when i'd been a minor but my parents and i didnt renounce russian one for some reason (turned out it was an arguable decision but i think it'd be quite good in long term perspective) after i got married with a girl who's an italian and swiss citizen i decided to take swiss citizenship as well and re-regiser all my property on this passport when. Now im comfortable with my taxation and travel freedom and opportiunity to have an acess to russian stock market. Earlier when i wasnt as wealthy as im now i wanted to change spanish citizenship to portuguese but when i understood that legislstion there was almost the same (except for having other passports) and that i im fact didn't have to give up on my spanish citizenship while obtaining another passpor i refused from this idea. Idk what about Lithuania but i think its familiar situation
I’m so happy that I’m a EU citizen …. Only thing what I don’t like from my home country is that I can not have a dual citizenship ( exception is to get the citizenship of any other EU member state ) because now I’m living in Canada and could get the Canadian citizenship but then I must give up my European citizenship .. I wouldn’t do that. It’s to bad
Given the current world situation and the length of time to get a citizenship sounds like a residency is a better way to diversify. It would be interesting to see top 10 passports for economic and personal freedoms not just visa free travel or family background.
I’m American, was so glad to get my Irish citizenship through descent from my grandparents. Just the freedom to live in the EU is great
Congratulations.
@brendanl8390 Being an american abroad, how's FBAR, FATCA, and the IRS going for you?
Can you explain to me why is EU is freedom and America is not? I truly don't know. Please tell me
@@devdaniel666 great affordable healthcare, free/low pay education, way more regulated in regards to food, pedestrian friendly, existing gun control, work/life balance written into law (mandatory vacation days, up to six weeks full pay when sick, after that around 60/70 paid by health insurance at least in Germany).
@@1esk192 thank you for answer! But maybe you can tell me does it apply to Canada as well?
How to get those passports? Do you need i vest in real estate or need live there 5+ years snd work there ro be able to apply for passport?
I have 2 Citizenships and I ensured my son also does, it would be nice to learn more about China's, Russia's and all those countries in the BRICS and joining the BRICS... Citizenship aspects, Taxes, etc. I like your info on the countries you shared, its great. It would be interesting to know your take on the future of the US$ and thus economy too.
Thank-you to those who replied / messaged me. Muchly appreciated.... one of the concerns I have, although knowing that we are currently still pro Western, is what the Billionaires and Trillionaires are doing quietly behind the scenes in the face of the BRICS+. Sure we still have some time to do our own strategic planning around de-dollarisation etc, not too long though, but it isn't as if they (the ultra rich) are going to advertise their siphoning off of their vast funds into other non US$ currencies, commodities, real estate and businesses in other countries are they? They'll do it so it won't cause panic to enable them to get it all out of the US$, gradually until its all nicely tucked away safely and you and I will pick up the tab once it does go "Pop". It's the "Pop" part which I cannot put a timing on, but one thing is 100% certain... we have finally turned the corner, the top thereof, of the life cycle of the non backed fractional reserve banking fiat currency called the worlds reserve currency, US$. It's only a matter of time... all empires who print limitlessness whilst sanctioning the planet, come to an end and this one is now in the sunset clause. For my kids, I'll be planning to protect them and the business to survive and thrive moving forwards for either situation. The question is, "will you be caught with your pants down?" The irony is, I don't want to be right on this, but at the same time I'm not going to put my head in the sand either by merely watching Western media (not saying you or anyone here does), just saying.
Oddly enough, Serbia is appealing.
Visa-free travel to China and Russia - not that either is particularly appealing right now - but would give me flexibility that I don't have on my current passport.
Armenia is similarly good
China is important for business reasons, you might as well try a Malaysian passport, that opens up a lot of East Asia.
I believe they dont allow dual citizenship though
@@lawtutoring Can get drafted if they go to war under the age of 55 though
@@mattball7074 They allow dual citizenship
Straight forward and to the point what about Singapore or Japan?
thanks! very informative👍🏼
Thanks! 😊
I could have one, it would definitely be Ireland. My dad became a citizen through the Foreign Births Registry, but after I was born so I do not qualify. However, I have family and friends over there so moving there and naturalizing would not be that hard, plus I've done over 15+ trips there so its familiar. Having EU rights + right to live in the UK is a good thing to have. Plus, I just love Ireland as a whole.
Yes absolutely a huge thank you for the no music
If I could have only one passport... well either Singapore or Switzerland... with tendency towards the latter:
Both offer:
- great travel options
- great tax schemes / policies (yes not tax free but fair!)
- world-class education
- are clean and safe
- strong economy and banking system
- privacy laws
- plus in the case of Switzerland:: free speech and lgbtq/kink friendly while also allowing dual citizenship
- also Switzerland is larger and gives you more outdoor options (mountains, lakes, etc.) in general and they had less lock-downs during the pandemic
Are you sure?
My nephew residence in Switzerland with his Switzerland local wife.
Everything is very expensive and lots of invisible tax and visible taxes society.
Switzerland has lower inflation than its neighbors
lgbt/kink friendly are literally why most of us are trying to get out of degenerate eu and north america you weirdo
Where did you get that from that Serbia has visa free access to Saudi Arabia? I was just looking this up and I can only find that a visa is required.
I expected Monaco to be on the list. Great for travel, tax-free, easy access to France (though not necessary to the rest of the EU), and the brand name is there.
Yes he does not mention the tiny states. Andorra, San Marino, Liechtenstein.
@@PORSCHE_COUNTRY. interesting, can you share any sources?
Yeah Monaco would be my number one. Spent almost 20 years there and there is no path to naturalization but rather by royal decree which is extremely rare. But it also comes with lesser known perks, like cheaper real estate options for citizens than for foreign residents. And it went through two world wars unharmed regardless of being in the middle of Europe.
love your videos
Excellent breakdown and reasoning of all these passports and countries! For someone looking for ease of communication, lifestyle, sense of community, fun people to integrate with, history, travel access and a more or less neutral global standing, I would also choose Ireland.
Thank you for the very detailed explanations
Glad you enjoyed it!
you and your company are fantastic with research, knowledge and presentation. what does your membership cost a year?

What!!! No Malta? Really!
Hi Andrew, I appreciate the valuable information. I believe I have ancestors from Ireland i.e. grandfather (Burke) from my mother's side, he has passed. I will contact you directly to enquire more about an ancestor pass port i.e. Ireland, we also have Iberian blood (Spain) but no known relatives. I understand that Croatia is a beautiful place to visit. Do you think that Croatia would be a good place to live i.e. tax-wise, other. I believe some of the locals, especially in the more populated cities speak English. Could you kindly do a video on living in Croatia and Spain i.e. pros and cons. Thank you so much, love your videos!
@nomadcapitalist, thanks a million for educating people all over the world about financial freedom. I'm a fed up Canuck who wants to fly away to "where I'm treated best".
Best of luck with it!
Have you/could you do a video about the ease/cost of leaving US to other countries for blue collar workers? My husband does auto body repair and I do retail.
For me it's Greece having spent my elementary and high school years there (8 years) at an international school. I know the language enough to get around, familiar with the culture, love the people . . . and have enough money to buy my way in. Anyone who has been there will know what I'm talking about. Culture, beauty, friendliness of the people. The only drawback is learning the language. As a foreigner you stand out and Greeks always want to try out their English on you. Not a bad thing- quite convenient actually. It just takes a while to get conversant in the Greek language.
You are the OG passport bro. You need to do a video on this.
😂
What about Malta passport?
Surprised you missed Monaco. One of the hardest to get, usually takes 10 years of 180/360 residence, but no income tax, no capital gains tax, no wealth tax.
Great perks but I can't imagine living 5 years of my life in a country the size of a shoebox. But then again how do they even check if you actually live there.
Monaco is only for über wealthy and even that with Prince's approval.
I'm actually quite surprised Italy didn't make the list. It certainly checks off all the boxes. Relatively easy process for citizenship by descent for those that qualify. A flat tax regime for a sizeable timeframe, or a low fixed tax rate in other circumstances. A tier-1 travel document. Stunning places to live and explore with choices between ideal mountain, beach, or city life. Food that is to die for. And liveability through the roof. I don't think any of the other's checks off all those boxes to such an extreme. Every one on your list checks some of those boxes, but not all, including my #2, land-locked Switzerland, although it does have the beautiful lakes environment - sans direct sea access and sea views, if high cost of living for super high quality is one's thing.
Ireland, although a pretty cool place, but has a few things against it. Namely the current and worsening housing crisis, along with somewhat bland food like the UK, and less than ideal weather also like the UK. However, Ireland does get big props for the Non-Dom regime. Also has easy citizenship by descent that's a bit harder than Italy's. I'm personally cut off from my Irish eligibility since my now passed grandmother never registered herself. While I am eligible for Italian citizenship a few generations removed without that requirement. Ireland does have great people and culture and the excellent travel document. Oh, and the best Guiness on the planet, as its origin.
Never-the-less, It seems objectively, Italy takes the crown here, even with the Italian stubbornness to learn much English (when in Rome, do as the Romans do). Of course all of this takes into consideration the potential for the EU to fall apart, and the question of would I want to live in this one place without having free movement across the region under the auspices of the EU. Without that consideration, then yes, Itally and Ireland are about a tie.
Italy is seriously troubled economically right now. Also, during lockdowns, I believe, they were very strict.
@@alexandramccarthy4648 The world is in serious economic trouble right now, including Italy. Italy was less strict during pandemic than the USA, and far less strict compared to Canada, Australia, and the USA.
@@alexandramccarthy4648 Yeah, I lived through that and Italy was *overly strict,* so much so that it killed the economy and made things so much worse for the average Joe here, heck, without the magic liquid running inside you they would'nt let you work or go to restaurants for fear of a simple cold, what a waste really, they shoot themselves in the foot and won't even admit it...
I have Filipino citizenship and American citizenship. I am trying to take advantage of Spain's 2 year naturalization program for former colonies. That freedom to live in the EU would be great.
If to have just one passport then you have to consider if the country is livable for you. In UAE it's +50C in summer. In Norway and Lithuania the language issue is too much. So for Americans I would say that Ireland and Canada is viable options.
If someone knows Spanish then Latin America could also be an option. As a Russian person I think it would be easy for me to learn Serbian language (since it's from the same group of Slavic languages) but I don't think it would be easy for Americans.
And if to consider investing time into learning a new language (and it's a lot of time, per my experience of learning English and French) then German seems a reasonable option. So Germany and Switzerland for German language enthusiasts.
Why Portugal is out of the list ?
I kind of was waiting for you to say Finland or Sweden or even Denmark. People from those country's do carry a status of being very much so around the world a stable country's.
We do have worldwide taxation in Canada. I was away for almost two years and had to pay taxes on my business income. It's because I kept my residency. If you're willing to let go of your residency (healthcare etc.) then great. If not, you still have to pay taxes. The problem is that if you go that route and eventually come back to Canada, you'll be 6 months without healthcare. So anything that happens to you, you'll have to pay out of pocket and that's not a risk I was willing to take.
Ireland would be my choice , member of EU for access , close to the UK for family visits , let’s not forget the beer very important community spirit in the local pubs !!
What about Singapore?
Great topic!
AFAIK, unless something has just changed, citizenship by descent isn't possible in Norway...
Andrew I have an outstanding application for Irish citizenship by descent that has literally been waiting three years without being looked at. I have had an Irish law firm the whole time supporting me but they don't seem to be able to do anything to move it forward. I'm not sure if your company can help?
You should definitely reach out to our team here: nomadcapitalist.com/apply/
You cannot claim citizenship by descent in Ireland any further back than your grandparents, these so called “law firms” are asking for discretionary naturalisation, which is very rarely granted and probably unlikely for someone who dosent have any residence history.
You would need to live in Ireland for 5 years to get citizenship.
So essentially you can forget it as they won’t give you it with no history of residency in the country.
What about north macedonia? I know the passport thing is kinda sketchy and possible canceled.. but what about north macedonia recidency by starting a company there? Is that a real thing?
What about passports from any nation in Asia 🌏?
Andrew, would you please include metrics, info, and analysis on children's education in your overviews of passports/countries to move to? Many of us have kids and their education is an important consideration. By children's education, I mean quality public or private schooling opportunities, but something reasonable. Not all want to do home schooling and many of us still would like to rely on the public system at least to a certain degree. Thus, please include children's education as a variable to discuss in your videos. Thank you.
You have to keep in mind that a passport that allows you to go somewhere that you have no interest in going there doesn't have any benefit to you. I have a passport in Panama where I live and it allows me to go where I wish to go. Of course I have my American passport which I only need if I go back to the US. The point is that different people have different needs as far as travel is concerned. If your passport serves your needs then you are fine.
It is very hard to get a second citizenship,for exam. In Lithuania the only way to have their citizenship and not be forced to give up your original is if you got parents or great parents who were Lithuanian citizen and you have to provide documents from the Lithuanian historical Archives :old identification card,military service cards,born cards, Lithuania was a free state between 1918 and 1940,and many documents are lost,so just if you are enough lucky to find this certificates you can apply with succsses,also if your ancesors left Lithuania before 1918 (when it became state)or after 1990, his children can nt apply for citizenship,find the needed documents is very complicated job,it can take month ,therefore the applicant must hire a Lithuanian lawyer who specialize in this field.
Great vdo. Really informative
So how can you have those passports? you either need to live for 5-10 years in that country or pay a lot of money to get it
According to me Serbian/ Argentina are good options as u get access to both East and West bloc.
UAE, Switzerland or Luxembourg
I have an Irish passport because both parents are Irish and I’ve travelled on it for 25 years now . Only issue with Ireland is it is very expensive there . Energy , rent , food … all expensive . The people are great though , fantastic
For the last 15 years, my Croats have looked for work in Ireland and they like the Irish culture. Expensive life, but people are good.
With regard to travel and country access without visas, Spain, Italy, Finland, and France are identical to Germany, why weren’t these mentioned?
Probably because of some of the weak leftist govts in Europe.
Spain, Italy & France high tax high bureaucracy
@@johnbull4138not that Germany is much better in that regard
LOL, Finland has the highest taxes in Europe and the second highest taxes in the world.
I’m the 3rd gen Scottish.
Does it fall under UK for a passport?
Yes.
@@williammarkey6020 no, British Citizenship by descent passed down 1 generation only.

She is absolutely the best in the game right now
The feeling is important
I would choose Switzerland wholeheartedly.
I was born and raised in England, naturalised in Australia, acquired Swiss citizenship through marriage and am now applying for Irish citizenship by descent as my grandfather was born in Galway and I've Galway blood on both sides (35% Irish, 10% Scottish, 55% English.) But I'm going to check out Thailand, St Kitts, Dubai, Panama and Ecuador as well, with a view to buying a property in case I have to get out of Europe one day. I'm bitterly disappointed that Australia has turned out the way it has. We went through burning hoops as business migrants and lost a heap of money in the process of relocating there - and now my son's in med school in Oz and won't leave. 😢Thank you ever so much for the invaluable country insights you provide - it's much appreciated as it would have taken me hours to research all this as a starting point by myself! 😄
Why Ecuador?
@@siquike90 Good expat communities, politically pretty free, no CBDC (cash used a lot), farm land and housing still relatively cheap, friendly people, some stunning scenery, not too expensive or complex visa process, very good healthcare, cheaper living than the west, and I happen to like Christian/Catholic/Orthodox countries as I'm a person of faith that loves architecture generally and specifically old churches! I also like old fashioned trains and mountain railways and some of the routes there are irresistibly terrifying. My friend's daughter got engaged to the son of the then Japanese ambassador to Ecuador and they spoke highly of it.
I live in Cuenca, Ecuador and it's fantastic! Great expat community to help people integrate, excellent fruits, veggies, and restaurants. And no, there are not gangsters running around everywhere like in the US
@@suetrublu Thank you so much for that lovely and very helpful reply. 🙏
My Polish passport it’s my passport I was born with and I can’t lose it and it’s an eu passport so that has some benefits
How about Singapore or Portugal?
If possible, could you do a Top 10 of best Latin American country's to live in. Thanks
I'm working for Belgium (high taxes) and UK (tax efficient).
What about just having Permanent Resident Visa? Doesn't it serve the purpose? Most PR cannot vote or free education, but the rest entitlements are the same as citizenship.
I was born in Canada to Irish immigrants and finally got my Irish passport. I am waiting for the housing market to get better in Ireland and then moving from Canada to there. I love the people and culture there. Beautiful country as well. Always enjoy my stay there as well when traveling.
Property prices aren't that high in Ireland at present. If you account for inflation, the prices are much lower than at the peak in 2008 so my guess is it's not gonna get better.
Rental market is a different story, that is completely crazy right now.
Houses even posh ones are really cheap compared to uk
considering you had a big line of charlie racked up on the thumbnail, I thought it was going to be Colombia.
Most of these countries are so hard to get their citizenship, Lithuania can take 10 years plus language fluancy, same goes for other baltics, Swiss is pretty hard, UAE! Yes it's the best but hey that is nearly impossible just like Saudi Arabia one. These are like a (wish list) maybe
Why UK is not on the list? Would love to know pros and cons about it
Whahaha😂
If I get a visa to swizzlend can I travel europe ?
yes
Personally, as a native english and spanish speaker, having grown up in Latam, I think either Spain or Italy are the best choices if you could only have one passport. They are both large and wealthy countries with a wide global network of embassies. They have strong militaries, been around for a while and will likely continue to exist in the future and although not optimally tax wise, they are far from the worse and they have that little splash of messines, they’re not as controlling or structured as the Netherlands or Germany. You can have a bit more fun and probably avoid a few more taxes. They’re also culturally quite close to me and I would probably adapt fairly quickly. Their economies, although far from the best, are okay. And many people make and keep money in those countries and have been doing so for a while. It also doesn’t hurt that their passports are incredibly strong travel documents, they have no global taxation and their food and weather are also really nice in case you have to live there in some black swan event.
As a Hispanic American, I agree 100%. The US is very controlling and probably will become even more controlling as the country becomes more nationalistic and moves farther to the extreme right. A little bit of "grit" or messiness is refreshing. Food and cultural similarities are important to take into account for the long-term plan. My wife is Mexican so we both have a connection to Spain even if just by having Spanish surnames.
@@leemartinez2975Yes, please move there and vote for higher taxes and woke policies that always backfire.
I love when you do it to yourselves.
Spain? Are you serious?
Their economies are not ok, thats why the taxes are so high
You mean 2 of the most financially challenged countries in Europe? Where did you get the 'wealthy' part?
Did you renounce your citizenship? How do you no longer have a U.S. passport?
You go to the nearest US embassy, fill in a form and pay a very large fee. After a few months you are free!
Surprisingly you are all over the place on this topic. You have recommended several higher tax countries. I am from Luxembourg, and while I love what my country offers, I don't think it is for you.
More videos please on practical citizenship/permit options for English-speaking semi-Westernized Indian passport holders who understand and also want to avoid the problems associated with Western citizenships (especially the US)!
Serbia and Portugal are mine passports, how do I do? Greatings!!!!!!
What about Australia, Sweden or New Zealand ?
3:26 Can anyone confirm Serbians have visa free access to Saudi Arabia? No luck finding any info on this online.
Every country’s passport has a Wikipedia page called “Visa requirements for X citizens”. These are generally very accurate and easy to follow.
I couldn't find anything on that either.
No, that's not true. Serbians need a visa to go to Saudi Arabia.
I am Japanese and have been living in the US for the past 22 years. My green card is about to expire in November so I am debating to either renew the green card or get a US citizenship. I really do not see myself living in Japan but I am not too sure to give up my Japanese passport....
Just renew. It's always best to keep your Japanese passport.
Keep your Japanese citizenship. America is going downhill. Japan seems like a lot more sensible country despite their (mostly demographic )issues.
You have been living in us for 22 years. You're pretty much American but as long as keeping Japanese passport is not harming you then keep it. But if you have to choose between one then you have answered that question yourself.
keep your Japanese passport!!!
Tax burden is very high in Japan it things are going South in the States. If you naturalise in the US, you automatically lose your Japanese citizenship.
I think the best ones are: Ireland (because of the Common Travel Area with the UK), Germany and Italy (tied), and South Korea
Brunei was missing.
Singapore!
I have German and UK so feel very lucky.
Surprised to not see Chile on the list.
You should add 11 - Bulgaria - EU member state.
You can buy a passport from a few Caribbean island nations to travel visa free to all of Europe more
is it good to have a danish pasport ?
Why not Maltese passport. U can be Italian French and British in Malta
What about Malaysia passport?
No capital gains tax in Belgium
I’m surprised Montenegro did not make the list?
Norway does not allow dual, unless you have one parent who is foreign and are born in that country. I had the opportunity to get citizenship but passed because I didn’t want to trade my two current citizenships for one.
They do now, law changed.
Dual citizenship has been allowed in Norway since 2020.
I thought you,'r gonna mention Portugal in your list
I choose....................Monaco, as long as I can get the bank account to go with it :) LOL
Does getting Macedonian and Hungarian passports worth getting it?
