13 Citizenship By Investment Programs Ranked

This jewel of a country that boasts gorgeous mountains, beautiful beaches, rich history and affordable living offers a citizenship for investment program that is obtainable for $350,000 Euro.  This is split into a 100,000 Euro donation to the country and a 250,000 Euro investment in real estate.  Many foreigners have taken advantage of this program and have taken up residence in some of the amazing towns such as Budva and Kotor.  The Montenegro government has announced however that this program will shut down at the end of 2021 so time is of the essence.  2. Malta A more expensive option is available to those looking to obtain a second passport in the country of Malta.  Boasting a low crime rate, temperate weather and a high quality of life certainly justifies the higher price of citizenship.  A 738,000 Euro investment is required but can vary depending on the length of residency.  A Maltese passport can travel visa free or visa arrival to 186 countries as of 2021.  3. Austria Similar to Malta, an Austria passport offers plenty of travel options to other countries, including  visa free or visa upon  arrival at 189 countries, including all of Europe.  It does come at a price however significantly higher than other European options.  The cost for an Austrian passport is a minimum 3 million Euro contribution.
