Next Generation Equity offers a range of citizenship and residency programmes. The choice of programme should be based on each individual’s unique situation. Should you wish to make an enquiry our team is available for a free consultation to discuss all relevant aspects and enable you to make the most informed decision.
According to the prescribed law, some countries offer citizenship-by-investment, whereas others offer residency-by-investment. Citizenship programmes guarantee full lifetime citizenship in the country of choice and the second passport is granted immediately following a successful application.
Citizenship programmes offered by Next Generation Equity:
Residency programmes offer immediate residency following a successful application and full citizenship can usually be applied for after a period of time. A second passport will only be given following citizenship approval.
Residency programmes offered by Next Generation Equity:
For the majority of programmes the government donation or real estate investment is not made until after approval is granted, or the investment is held in a government escrow account, which is fully refundable if you are not successful with your application. If due diligence or legal work has already been carried out then this fee is non-refundable. As each programme works differently, we will advise you on the particular process for the chosen programme before you proceed.
To date we have been 100% successful with our clients. You will only be unsuccessful if you have not been completely honest with your application and/or have a criminal conviction. Please discuss any concerns you may have with your Next Generation Equity consultant before proceeding with your application.
Timelines vary depending on the chosen programme and investment option. However, the approximate timescales are between two to twelve months for citizenship and a minimum of two months for some residency programmes, once the full application has been submitted.
It is possible to gain a refund of your investment if you have not yet completed the process, depending on the programme. With some programmes the payments are made in instalments and often only at which point you have completed a stage in the process. Due diligence fees are not refundable once this process has begun. Your Next Generation Equity consultant will advise you on your rights and refund eligibility before each payment is made.
For the majority of programmes there are no physical residency requirements and applicants can complete the process from outside their chosen country. Please refer to our downloadable brochures or contact us for a free consultation to discuss the requirements for each individual programme.
