How to use these guides
Pattern-recognition, not blanket advice.
Each nationality guide reflects the dominant patterns Citizen Sure observes for that passport, what most clients actually face on tax, on dual citizenship, on programme fit. Treat them as a structured first read. The shape of your specific file is decided in the consultation.
Dual-citizenship law
Whether your country recognises, restricts, or prohibits a second nationality, and what the practical mechanics look like when it does.
Dual citizenship explainedTax residency rules
Domestic tax-residency triggers, FATCA / CRS implications, exit-tax exposure where it applies, and how a CBI / RBI move interacts with all of them.
Tax residency primerProgramme fit
The CBI, Golden Visa, or RBI routes that consistently work for your passport, and the ones that historically struggle in due diligence.

Frequently asked questions
How does my nationality affect which programme I should pursue?
Materially. Tax-residency rules, dual-citizenship recognition, capital-control regimes, and due-diligence treatment all vary by passport. A combination that works perfectly for a UK citizen may be tax-inefficient for an Indian or US citizen.
Does my passport rank matter for investment-migration?
For visa-free travel it matters at the margins, but the right CBI / GV often delivers a stronger passport regardless. What matters more is your tax-residency situation and whether your home country recognises dual citizenship.
Can I include family members from a different nationality?
Yes. Most programmes allow a spouse / dependants regardless of nationality. Some programmes restrict applicants from specific countries, we flag those constraints in the per-country guide.
Are these guides updated as regulations change?
Yes. Each guide is reviewed by a senior advisor and re-checked whenever a material regulatory change lands in our /changes log. Last-reviewed date is shown on each detail page.
My nationality is not listed, can you still help?
Yes. We currently publish guides for the most-asked nationalities; the eligibility quiz and the senior-advisor consultation cover every nationality. Email or use the contact form and we will route you to the right desk.
What does visa free access mean?
It is the number of destinations a passport holder can enter without a visa obtained in advance. It can include visa on arrival and electronic travel authorisation, depending on the source.
Does a second passport replace my current one?
Not always. Some countries allow dual citizenship and some do not. Check the rules of your current nationality before you apply for a second citizenship.
How can I improve my travel access?
Citizenship by investment is the most direct route. Residency programmes can lead to citizenship over time, and some residence permits ease travel within a region such as the Schengen Area.
