Best citizenship by investment programmes for families
Compare programmes by the people you need to include—not by a headline price. This guide helps families assess spouses, children, adult dependants, parents, grandparents and siblings before requesting an exact cost.
Dominica leads for its established programme, practical family coverage and clear routes. Saint Lucia and Saint Kitts and Nevis are strong alternatives, Grenada stands out when US E-2 planning matters, and Türkiye is the strongest property-led option for a spouse and children under 18.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Family citizenship questions.
What is the best citizenship by investment programme for a family?+
There is no universal winner. The right programme depends on the number and ages of children, whether parents or siblings must be included, nationality restrictions, investment route, due diligence profile and total family cost.
Can adult children be included?+
Some programmes accept adult children only when they meet specific education, financial dependency, marital-status or disability conditions. Eligibility must be checked against the rules in force before submission.
Can parents and grandparents apply with the family?+
Several Caribbean programmes allow qualifying dependent parents or grandparents, but minimum ages and dependency evidence differ. They should never be assumed eligible from relationship alone.
Which programme is cheapest for a family of four?+
The lowest published contribution is not necessarily the lowest total cost. Due diligence, processing, interview, passport, professional and dependant-specific fees can change the ranking for each family.
Can siblings be included?+
Sibling inclusion is limited here to Saint Lucia and Nauru. Saint Lucia applies specific age, marital-status and consent conditions, while Nauru applies its current dependant rules and additional sibling fees.
Do all family members undergo due diligence?+
Yes. Every included applicant is reviewed under the programme’s current due diligence rules, with age-specific checks, fees and interviews where applicable.
