Property versus Economic Investment Immigration
When acquiring second citizenship and a second passport from a different jurisdiction, one of the methods is to engage in an investment immigration program. Most countries offer two different types of investment immigration programs; these are economic investment and property investment.
Individuals that wish to acquire the citizenship and passport of a different country and are considering relocation though investment immigration can do so by economic investment. Economic Investment refers to individuals donating or investing a substantial amount of money into a specific cause, for example donating money to the county’s government.
In contrast, applicants for second citizenship and second passport can go through the process of property investment. This means they must purchase property of a stipulated value in their chosen country of investment immigration.
