Analysis: Dominica
Remains an Excellent Choice for Economic Citizenship - Economic
Citizenship in Dominica - Economic citizenship programs give you the
opportunity to legally acquire a new nationality quickly and simply, without
major disruptions to your life. While there are many “instant citizenship”
schemes promoted on the Internet and elsewhere, currently only five countries
offer legal and clearly defined citizenship for investment programs on
a statutory basis, commonly known as economic citizenship programs. This
article focuses on Dominica. Dominica’s economic citizenship program is
based on a solid legal foundation. It is clearly defined in the laws and
in the constitution of Dominica.

Encouraging Investment, But Not at Any Price -
Investing
in Dominica - by: Christopher E.J. Main - Ms. Lucilla Lewis
of Dominica’s International Business Unit (IBU) reports that by December
1998, 173 investors had successfully applied for economic citizenship in
Dominica through the Program and a total of 341 passports have been issued,
showing the popularity of Dominica’s special fee structure for families;
a one-time payment to the Government of US$50,000 qualifies the investor,
his or her spouse and their two children (under 18 years old) for economic
citizenship. Another option is purchasing US$75,000 in 15-year bonds
and paying additional application fees. From The Best of Offshore Finance

Extreme, Dominica Diving ~ On
The Island Of Dominica ~ by Claudia Belleau - I have come to Coconut
Beach in Dominica, the Nature Island, volcanically spit and shaped in the
Lesser Antilles, to spend Christmas holidays with my spouse Captain Tom.
He arrived here on November 20th, delayed by scores of mudslides that blocked
passage on cliffside roads. The island suffered the only major earthquake
in its history - 6.5 on the Richter scale, the epicenter of the quake was
10 kilometers from the east coast of the island; the quake occurred at
6 a.m. on Sunday, November 21st. Aug./05

The "Nature" Island ~ by Deb Andrews - Half way along the curved necklace
of islands comprising the Windward Islands of the Eastern Caribbean basks
a mountainous rock of 290 sq miles (750 sq km). At longitude 61º
20W, and latitude 15º 25N, Dominica is a land of steep mountains and
cliffs plummeting straight into the blue Caribbean sea on the western side
and the grey Atlantic on the eastern. Rising at the highest point
to Mt. Diablotin at 4,747 ft. (1,447m), this is a country of raw beauty,
rugged headlands and moody mountains, their peaks often buried in cloud.

The Caribbean’s Best Kept Secret
For Expatriates ~ Dominica
~
by Phillip Townsend - The Caribbean is synonymous
with hedonism - from the mass tourist Mecca of the Bahamas to the off-the-beaten-path
divers' paradise of Bonaire. What you might not know about the Caribbean,
however, is that it's also home to one of the most appealing - and inexpensive
- expatriate and retirement havens in the world. This little-known gem,
though off the well-trodden path taken by most travelers, has a lot to
offer. So if you're longing for the good life in a tropical haven, duck
the crowds and head to Dominica. Oct./05
Travels
In The Caribbean ~ Dominica
And Antigua ~ by Deb Andrews - There is an undeniable magic about Dominica,
it hovers in the universal sound of falling water, in the misty green mountains
and vowel-heavy Creole spoken on every village street. Take care, this
region of magic is inhabited by “jumbies”, entities who are not known for
their kindness to people. Jul./05 |
