I think it all depends what happens when Europe switches to online visa like Canada and the United States does. It might become more difficult for people who bought citizenship by investment to get visas. Of course no one knows at this time. But you know you got to live for the moment and if you're happy with it, then just be content. And if it helps you in your quest to renounce your citizenship in America, that alone is probably worth it. And you can work to getting your portfolio enhanced
Dear Sir, You are not a citizen of the whole of the Organization of East Carribean States. You are a citizenship in St Kitts & Nevis, and because St Kitts & Nevis is a member of the Organization of Eastern Carribean States, you can live in the other member states, but you are not a citizen of the other member states, like for example St Lucia.
Rafael, let me assure you (as a Caribbean Citizen). The Saint Kitts Passport is a GREAT Passport. You made the RIGHT Decision. I am very happy for you. There is NOTHING TO REGRET. All the best
@@EnderViBrittania OK. So. First of all, St. Kitts and Nevis Provides Visa Free Access to over 100 countries. It's one of the best passports in the Caribbean. The country itself is Tax Free for those of its Citizens and Residents who live there full time. It is part of CARICOM and its Sub-Regional Body, the OECS that allow for a limited level of free movement throughout the Caribbean. Lastly, from a climate perspective, if you live in St. Kitts full time, you get sunny weather all year round and you don't have to adjust your clock for daylight saving time.
Hello Sir, I have a question on the citizenship by investment program in saint Kitts and Nevis; if I invest 200k in a property to get the citizenship, can I still borrow money against this property assuming that I paid cash for it, are there financing options available for these types of investments?

Just had a couple of questions out of Curiosity. 1. Given that St. Kitts is part of the Commonwealth if you needed some help from an Embassy would you try to contact the closest St Kitts mission or go straight to the U.K. Embassy? 2. To renew the St. Kitts passport would you need to send it to St. Kitts or to their closest Embassy?
Any notion that the British Embassy would "help" you.....please. Be realistic. They offer zero consular assistance to British citizens abroad and membership of the Commonwealth means nothing.
99 percent in crypto... Well, good luck. Consider diversifying into tulip bulbs. That being said, what you say about citizenship by investement makes sense.
@@TitusJudah His net worth doesn't have anything to do with his argument. Holding 99% of your assets in crypto is nuts. Price literally went down by more than 50% in 2 months
I've heard that renunciation of the US citizenship for the purpose of avoiding taxation might put one on the "no-entry" list? You have to be careful about making these statements publicly if you ever plan to come back.
Since you mentioned that 99% of your assets are in cryptos, do you regret now taking the citizenship as you may not have to pay so much taxes in cryptos now that the rates have plummeted?
Hello Sir, I have a question on the citizenship by investment program in saint Kitts and Nevis; if I invest 200k in a property to get the citizenship, can I still borrow money against this property assuming that I paid cash for it, are there financing options available for these types of investments?
I like how optimistic you are about the potential of your financial growth but still sounds a bit weird that you are trying to let go of your US passport prematurely, i mean look at Eduardo Saverin who renounced U.S. citizenship right ahead off mega facebook IPO - he avoided taxation right before cashing out when the money was in-front of him.. that's a smart move.. but what you are suggesting now is just bizarre
Kind of weird to think you are renouncing your US citizenship and becoming a Sudo British citizen, the UK will accept your passports in Embassies consulates and help as if you were one of their own
In my country they "let you go" as a citizen as soon as you accept any other citizenship (With certain exceptions). Which is definitely a no go ;) I'm loyal to my country (The Netherlands) and I would not want to trade it in for any other country :-) But glad that it works out well for you!
I moved and have lived in Europe for almost 20yrs. About 10yrs ago, I became a citizen and got my passport. I am strongly debating renouncing the US passport as I no longer really feel American. It is such a hassle as I have to file taxes in two different countries, even though, I aven't worked/lived there for 20yrs and don't even have a bank account there. If I visit the US, I have to use a US passport, and when I come home, have to come in on my EU passport, thus traveling on two passports. The things holding me back are financial. I was told that it cost 10k $in order to renounce? Have the money in the bank in €, but was saving that for an apt. Plus, having to go to court in order to do it. Seems like a lot of work. But, who knows, maybe I'll just pull the trigger. Curious, are your reasons for renouncing purely financial?
My best friend had a US Passport and its hard to give up this passport. I mean you must give a fee of 2000 $. No other Country (as far I know) in the World do that.
@@KEITGAMER Britain charges a fee too, but its much easier to renounce, they will not try to block you or make you attend a court, once you are gone though you can NEVER get it back
I became an EU citizen a year ago and I still want to keep my US citizenship as an insurance policy in case Russia decides to expand their war. I don't really care about doing a US tax return as I pay no US taxes plus I get a tax refund for my kids.
@@krastycz1810 I don't have an insurance policy in the US. And it would cost too much. In the EU, my medical/meds are extremely cheap compared to the US. I am nearing retiring and don't have children, so not a problem. After 17yrs(now) of filing twice and paying two accountants is getting old. I can't ever see myself going back to live in the US. That being said, I live in Brussels, and maybe a bit further removed from Russia than where I presume you are. Of course, you do what's best for you and your family.
I think you're right about that. And I know also that you have to renew your residence permit every year and you have to conduct the interview in French. It's not a problem for me growing up in Quebec but they do require you to speak French at least on a rudimentary basis. You also have to show assets every time you renew your residence permit. If you can't, they will politely show you the exit door which would be probably to France.
@@FinancialAdvisoryUSA but the cost of the real estate in Monaco is off the charts. Like a 100 square meter apartment is around 5 million euros, and not a fancy one! The place is really tiny they really check to make sure you're there 180 days. I think you would go crazy living there. And unless you had around 50 million or so, you wouldn't get along with any of the people there likely. It's normal to pay 50 euros for a breakfast! I don't think there's any place in the world as expensive as Monaco.
@@torontovoice1You pay one way or the other. Either expensive real estate and no tax or half off real estate in France and tax. You can also live in St. Kitts with cheap real estate and no tax but spend $2k euros each time you want to go shopping elsewhere.
I have been trying to renounce now for a year and they do not answer my emails or the phone. It is so dumb. I can't wait for the day when I can get rid of that ball and chain.
Hi, you mentioned that you can't travel to Poland with SKN passport you need a visa for it! But I see on the website of the MofF of SKN they listed Poland in visa-free countries. ! thank you and can't wait to see your next videos in Turky and Romania .
Hola Rafael, I’m also from PR living in the US, 99% in crypto. Would truly love to connect sometime - have so many questions. Glad to stumble upon your channel.
Thank you for this video much insightful. How long did it take before you got your certificate of citizenship signed by the prime minister and your passport issued from the time you paid?
biometrics is the problem. Once you cross a border with one passport you biometrics is stored forever. Even if you never crossed a border, when you use a cellphone or internet, your data is stored forever. But anyway having a second password is interesting.
Interesting! How does it work with traveling outside of your country of residence (UAE), is your UAE residence permit in your USA passport? Which passport do you use at all the exit and entry points (check-in counter, exit immigration, arrival immigration, and on the way back to UAE for same spots). After you renounce, you will transfer over your residence permit into your St. Kitts passport? Is that difficult?
The US hates for us to disconnect. My crypto currency is growing too. And the US punishes you when you disconnect by limiting you to two or three weeks a year that you can visit the US for ten years. I know this because Terry Gilliam, famous for all of the Monty Python films, renounced his US citizenship and he mentions that he is limited to x number of days he can visit the US!
he is a British citizen , so he is able to visit up to 90 days/year . but if someone renounce their US citizen even if born in the US they have no right to visit the US , the government can deny you entry for any reason .
hope the power of these Caribbean passports stay as it is. hope the european union will continue the visa free access for these passports. and it dont lose its power.
Question... I hear the EU is considering banning the buying of citizenship. Also given the conflict in Eastern Europe, is buying a European citizenship a flawed decision?
Yes, they are and it cannot come to soon for this debacle that will ending hurting the natural born citizens of these citizenship by investment countries. These people will then realize that they spend all this money and their second passport is not worth even wiping their ass with when they visit the toilet
@@Toreadorification they can't ban you because as soon as you land in the Federation of Saint Christopher and Nevis its out of the Jurisdiction of the EU. its a defacto autonomous UK protectorate and part of the commonwealth of nations defended by the British, there's nothing stopping you from applying outside of the EU's borders just do it from the UK ...honestly what are they going to do? haha
I wish that was true, but I lived abroad for more than a year and definitely still had to file every year. If your salary is low enough you end up not owing much, but if it's high enough you're on the hook forever.
Hi bro.. thank you for your video! Please update a video if you already use your 2nd password for travelling to another country... I would like to know. Great informationa!
Once you get your CLN, you'll be in great shape. Remember to show it to banks if US is your place of birth. I'm on the same path -- renouncing later this year. Best of luck.
why didnt you buy a home and get a tax free global income ,if you keep making money the home purchase would be paid off super fast even if you have to pay 400k
I always wonder how Canada for example wants to enforce a world wide tax. I mean if I simply decide to not go back ever again then what? I stay in Thailand, Dubai or somewhere else.
I think given up your citizenship of a major country such as the US is foolish and counter productive. I am from the uk and l would never renounce my citizen for tax or any financial reason. Nor should it be allowed. I remember when british citizens needed evacuating from Syria by the British navy,you can never put a price on that type of help.
@@WealthyExpat There is money to be made in Bitcoin, but not holding them. Rather selling them etc. Mark Cuban got burned really badly on a crypto exchange. Some of the coins went to zero!
Interesting video. I became an EU citizen living in the EU and I'm also a US citizen but I do not want to renounce my US citizenship because I feel secure having it especially with Russia doing whatever they are doing in Europe.
You don't need to make any report in this web 3.0 day and age. It pains me someone has to renounce his us citizenship. I'm holding an African passport and it has been a misery for me to move an inch without being travel discriminated
All of your future passports will show that you were born in the US (Territory), and it could cause Friction opening Bank Accounts abroad, even if you show them definitive proof that you have renounced your US Citizenship.
if you are travelling a country and suddenly in danger why would you go for help? assuming Saint Christopher Does not have embassies in most of the countries.
Rafael, I have a question. Are there any Citizenship By Investment Programmes in South America (The MERCOSUR Countries)? I would love to have Citizenship By Investment Passports from CARICOM, Turkey, The EU and MERCOSUR.
Not really, you can get Paraguayan and Uruguayan citizenship but those require you to live there and learn the culture and language, its not so easy anymore
@@WealthyExpat OK, thank you. I guess I would have to use the Turkish Passport as my defacto MERCOSUR Passport since it has excellent visa free travel to all of Latin America.
Oh yeah absolutely. If you get into trouble, just tell them you want counselor services from the St Kitts and Nevis counselor service. Where are they? Where are their embassies? What political clout do they have? Is it the same as calling the US consulate for the Canadian consulate or the French consulate? I think not
Hola Rafael do you have any info on getting citizenship based on your career. For example if I’m a doctor in the US. And a country let’s say Dominica needs doctors they’ll give me citizenship for free just because of my career.
Canada has an extreme shortage of doctors, and it would be extremely easy to get a job in Canada which would lead to a permanent residency and citizenship in 5 years. Can you take the cold and the high taxes? If so, jump in your car and make your way across the border.
@@RomilCPatel currently going through process. Been living in Canada for over 20, and have a PR card, the process for Canadian citizenship is still very lengthy, I don’t know how you heard that it was fast tracked, it’s been over a year for me.

Thanks for this information. Can you help out by telling which agent we can use to get St Kitts citizenship? Would be very grateful for that.
How much are you down from that time?
You made the RIGHT decision dude!
How much of your net worth have you lost in the last few months?
Hi, how can I contact you? I tried to go to your website but it shows is not a valid website.
What kind of passport I can get. Great grand father was Spaniard.
If you want to be a freeloader on the world's taxpayers while taking the benefits, why not?
You don't have to pay taxes on your bitcoin if you don't sell 🤷
True, but still I want to trade some altcoins and projects I'm into
@@WealthyExpat There is money to be made in Bitcoin, but not holding them. Rather selling them etc. Mark Cuban got burned really badly on a crypto exchange. Some of the coins went to zero!
yet
Mine cost $125K. I have been to St Kitts and Nevis. It really doesn't care. There are no taxes except the a VAT there. We are tax slaves.
Interesting video. I became an EU citizen living in the EU and I'm also a US citizen but I do not want to renounce my US citizenship because I feel secure having it especially with Russia doing whatever they are doing in Europe.
So you pay both eu and us taxes?
You don't need to make any report in this web 3.0 day and age. It pains me someone has to renounce his us citizenship. I'm holding an African passport and it has been a misery for me to move an inch without being travel discriminated
I didn't regret... It's the best passport you can find out there
Thank you for such amazing information.
What are the sources suggesting European countries may switch to citizenship based taxation?
All of your future passports will show that you were born in the US (Territory), and it could cause Friction opening Bank Accounts abroad, even if you show them definitive proof that you have renounced your US Citizenship.
How many passeports do you have?
Me I am fortunate to have 2 (France and Canada)
why don't you want to pay taxes? Money isn't everything my friend.
So what u r going to do with all these passports..
One more thing base on what saying why elon musk not doing what you doing or other millions on rich people in us
canadian passport is the best. all countries respect the Canadian passport.
No, the best is Nobel prize.
Any country will give you citizenship by express procedures.
Thanks for video. What additional fees shall be paid except 150K? How much will this passport cost totally?
if you are travelling a country and suddenly in danger why would you go for help?
assuming Saint Christopher Does not have embassies in most of the countries.
St Kitts is a commonwealth country so British embassy would be his best option
Bermuda passport is the best!!!
Rafael, I have a question. Are there any Citizenship By Investment Programmes in South America (The MERCOSUR Countries)? I would love to have Citizenship By Investment Passports from CARICOM, Turkey, The EU and MERCOSUR.
Not really, you can get Paraguayan and Uruguayan citizenship but those require you to live there and learn the culture and language, its not so easy anymore
@@WealthyExpat OK, thank you. I guess I would have to use the Turkish Passport as my defacto MERCOSUR Passport since it has excellent visa free travel to all of Latin America.
Cape Verde has CBI for 200k. Portuguese speaking countries only need 1 year residence in Brazil for mercosur passport
You can get Paraguayan residence super easy though. The amount of money you need to deposit is $2000 or less and you get full residence.
No, but you can get residence by investment, which will eventually lead to citizenship.
I Pakistani and we don't have citizenship based tax.
Do St Kitts and other citizenship by investment countries help citizens out in crises like evacuation or quickly replace lost passports?
Oh yeah absolutely. If you get into trouble, just tell them you want counselor services from the St Kitts and Nevis counselor service. Where are they? Where are their embassies? What political clout do they have? Is it the same as calling the US consulate for the Canadian consulate or the French consulate? I think not
Thank You
Is there any age limitation ?
I am 30years old if I earn citizenship by investment Saint Lucia
Can I travel to Schengen countries any
Hassle free ?
Disculpe por favor, ¿habla usted español? Gracias.
Do you help people getting a Dominica passport and if yes, how much is your fee?
How easy it is to get a bank account in real life? You already opened some accounts?
Well, this didn't age well considering how the crypto market is doing at the moment.
dude if you become only ST kitts citizen how you gonna cash out? how you gonna have credit card?
Hola Rafael do you have any info on getting citizenship based on your career. For example if I’m a doctor in the US. And a country let’s say Dominica needs doctors they’ll give me citizenship for free just because of my career.
Canada has an extreme shortage of doctors, and it would be extremely easy to get a job in Canada which would lead to a permanent residency and citizenship in 5 years. Can you take the cold and the high taxes? If so, jump in your car and make your way across the border.
@@torontovoice1 Thanks for the information but I’m trying to avoid high taxes.
Probabaly not directly to citizenship, they might get you PR then eventually fast track you to citizenship, if you live there full time.
@@RomilCPatel currently going through process. Been living in Canada for over 20, and have a PR card, the process for Canadian citizenship is still very lengthy, I don’t know how you heard that it was fast tracked, it’s been over a year for me.
Have you changed the name? is there option to change names while getting a passport?
I didn't change the name but I know it's possible depending on the reason
With crypto down big , do you regret buying a passport as you no longer have capital gains.
quick question. What you ganna do if St Kitts start to tax you as well ?
Great video!
What about going back to Puerto Rico just for short family visits? How hard will it be for you to get a tourist visa once you renounce?
If you renounce US citizenship for tax purposes, good luck getting a visa
I don’t agree with this at all
I am from Pakistan. If I buy this passport, then will my Pakistani citizenship get revoked? I think it will.
Can I pay for it with crypto
From crypto gains yes but not payment in crypto directly
This guy must have made this before the crypto market crashed hard.
Just following your footsteps
