Citizenship by investment (CBI) schemes offer an excellent opportunity to invest in 5 star hotels and resorts for a passport. You can buy a hotel share in luxury hotels and resorts in Caribbean and Europe. Some of these hotels are already in construction and others are completed.
The following are some of the well known five star hotels
- Marriott
- Six Senses
- Park Hyatt
- Kempinski
- Hilton
The minimum share in hotel to buy for citizenship is USD 220,000 in the Caribbean. You should expect another USD 80,000 as passport costs, in the form of Govt fee. So you should expect close to USD 300,000 invested for 5 years for a family passport. After 5 years you can sell the equity share to another buyer.
These hotels are already approved projects by Government under Citizenship by investment program (CIP)
