Vanuatu
The fastest citizenship in the world — issued in as little as sixty days.
Citizenship of Vanuatu.
Vanuatu's Development Support Program grants citizenship in exchange for a non-refundable contribution to the government's consolidated revenue. The program is celebrated above all for its speed: complete files are routinely approved within 60 days of submission.
The country does not require any visit before, during or after the citizenship process and maintains strict confidentiality around applicant identities.
No personal tax — at all.
Vanuatu is one of the very few jurisdictions in the world that levies no personal income tax of any kind. There is no tax on salary, business profit, dividends, interest, royalties or capital gains, irrespective of source.
There is no wealth tax, no inheritance tax, no gift tax and no exit tax. The government finances itself primarily through value-added tax and customs duties on local consumption.
