In recent years, moving overseas through investment, property purchases, and other means has become a popular social topic. So, why are more and more people choosing to relocate? Statistics show that some migrate for their children's education, some to enjoy local benefits, and others to facilitate the expansion of their business around the world.
Vanuatu, a beautiful island nation in the western South Pacific, is a Commonwealth country with visa-free access to over 130 countries and regions, and is known as a retirement and leisure destination, often referred to as the "Backyard of Australia." The Vanuatu passport has gained attention from domestic investors due to its lenient application requirements—no need to visit the country, no immigration residency requirements, and no language proficiency requirements. Furthermore, with the full support of the Vanuatu government, passport approval is extremely fast, taking only 6-8 weeks for rapid approval. It allows a single application to cover three generations, and its favorable tax system has quickly attracted a large number of people looking to expand their businesses overseas.
Favorable Tax System in Vanuatu
Vanuatu is a tax-free country governed by law. Beyond trade taxes, value-added taxes, and business license fees, Vanuatu has no personal income tax, business tax, capital tax, real estate tax, inheritance tax, gift tax, or withholding tax. It is not a global tax jurisdiction, providing an excellent business environment. Investing in Vanuatu offers various tax advantages, making it easy to achieve a win-win situation for both identity and global asset planning.
Obtain a Vanuatu passport and provide children with international educational resources
Vanuatu boasts rich educational resources. As a member of the Commonwealth, Vanuatu follows the British education model. Children can receive a British-style education, and since most Commonwealth countries recognize each other's credits and degrees, educational choices are more diverse, ensuring peace of mind regarding children's education. In addition, school-age children can enjoy free British-style education in Vanuatu. Those who return to China for further studies as international students and meet the criteria can even be admitted to top domestic universities without taking written exams.
Vanuatu passport offers extensive visa-free travel
Holding a Vanuatu passport allows for visa-free access to over 130 countries and regions worldwide, including EU countries such as the UK, France, Germany, and Italy, as well as Asian countries and regions like Hong Kong (China), Singapore, South Korea (Jeju Island), and Malaysia, making travel very convenient.
It can be said that having a Vanuatu passport in hand opens the door to numerous conveniences, including enrollment in top schools for children, investment opportunities, and world travel.
In 2016, Vanuatu enacted the Investment Citizenship Program—the Contribution Program. Foreign nationals can quickly obtain a Vanuatu passport by making a donation to the Vanuatu government, becoming citizens of Vanuatu and enjoying the same rights as local citizens in terms of living, studying, residing, and working. In April 2018, the Vanuatu government amended the act, significantly lowering the threshold for investment citizenship, reducing the investment amount for a single applicant from the original $130,000 to $80,000. The amendment took effect on April 27, 2018.
