🇲🇹 Get in touch with Laszlo and get a free brochure on permanent residency in Malta: thewanderinginvestor.com/services/residency-and-citizenship-by-investment/fastest-way-to-get-permanent-residency-in-malta/ 🇰🇳 Get in touch with Laszlo with regards to Saint Kitts and any other Caribbean passport: thewanderinginvestor.com/services/residency-and-citizenship-by-investment/st-kitts-nevis-citizenship-by-investment/
Why do the western governments do not let theirs citizens free? Less regulations, better is the world. E.U. is terrible for the freedom. Bruxelles is like Moscow during the communist time....Great interview, Thank you.
Grat video! Not yet, I get emailed about residency quite a bit. People with wealth are looking for ways to increase their quality of life and reduce potential taxes if they face that problem. As a UK citizen I have a visa for Thailand because it's beneficial for me but that's just the tip of the investment iceberg so to speak! It's also interesting seeing what countries are offering for residency by investment there are still a lot of incentives out there.
Regarding the ETIAS/ETA stuff: South Korea also implemented ETA starting a couple years ago. And funny enough, they lifted this requirement this year for some countries because they wanted to attract more tourists. This tells you two things: 1. They know the ETA/ESTA/ETIAS will deter people from travelling, otherwise they wouldn't have paused the program to get more tourists. 2. The ETA/ESTA/ETIAS is not about stopping the bad people, otherwise they wouldn't have paused the program because it would have been dangerous.
Yeah, I think that at least one of the Caribbean countries (maybe Dominica) will say "FU" to the EU, and keep the price where it is; if all of the other Caribbean countries double their prices, the one country with the low price will get all the business. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ There's another category of citizenship-seeker; and that would be Americans who see themselves as PROBABLY never renouncing, but would like to have a 2nd citizenship "just in case" (I myself am in that category). For such people, having an inexpensive option is especially desirable, even if the visa-free access is limited. A lousy passport... in combination with a few residence permits.... can put a person in a good position.
I wonder if there will be a new trend of permanent residencies with very short paths to citizenship. Serbia has a project o grant citizenship after 1 year or residency. Dominica actually already has investor program hat grants citizenship after 2 years and 50k USD investment into an approved business. No one really took on it since CBI was 100k in donation but now it looks more appealing (assuming they manage to defend visa free access to EU)
Maybe. But in the meantime: - the Serbian program is far from being approved - in reality the Dominican Republic takes 7-8 years and is a massive headache. It takes substantial time on the ground dealing with administrative nonsense. And no guarantee in the end
Laszlo 'i do not think this will be a problem' the Passport guy 👍 This one was truly maddening... I don't think being unable to go to the States or EU is an issue especially in the years to come but just the balls of them to insist another country play by their strict, burdensome, expensive, lengthy regulations... it goes to what you were saying about tax havens though--can you be a tax haven when the haven state can so easily become bullied around?
Yeah, I agree with you that a passport that fails to provide access to the US or the EU can still be very valuable.... particularly since a person (one with financial means) would be able to get a golden visa in Portugal or Greece (or some other EU country).

Very good insight. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent content thank you
Why the ETA is seems very prejudiced and disproportionately affects people from developing countries.

Yes, 100% 👍

Why did u say Commonwealth of Dominica has bad reputation, based on what ?
I think, Someone will stick to 100k/ nearest. They will just sell passport.
There’s definitely a market for it 👍
