Recently, the government of Cyprus officially announced that the Cyprus Investment Programme (CIP) will be suspended effective November 1, 2020. This news has immediately sparked intense discussion within the immigration industry! The closure of the Cyprus Investment Programme means that investors will lose the most direct and convenient path currently available to obtain an EU passport.
Currently, several EU member states have introduced Golden Visa or passport programs. As with the issues encountered in Cyprus, immigration policies in some countries are trending toward tightening. For example, the Malta immigration program saw a significant increase in investment requirements this year, and the Portugal immigration program faces potential restrictions on real estate acquisitions. It is fair to say that if you wish to obtain EU status, you must act now, because policies do not wait for anyone—seizing the opportunity firmly is the wise course of action!
What if there were an immigration program that:
Is a country that the European Commission has publicly stated "may join the EU by 2025," does not require you to hold tens of millions in assets, requires an investment starting from only 350,000 euros—comprising a 100,000 euro donation to the Montenegrin government and a 250,000 euro investment in a government-approved project—allowing your whole family to apply for a passport from Montenegro, an EU candidate country, and eventually secure EU citizenship and an EU passport!

The time-limited and quota-restricted Montenegro passport program is drawing closer to its transition into an EU passport.
In November 2018, the government of Montenegro announced the launch of its Citizenship by Investment Programme (CIP). The program runs for a total of 3 years, from January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2021, and is legislated to accept only 2,000 applications!
Among the many countries worldwide that have launched citizenship by investment programs, it is rare for immigration laws to specify both time and quota limits. As a prospective EU member state, Montenegro has implemented these limits to align with the European Union and facilitate its accession. The launch of the Montenegro Citizenship by Investment Programme opens a path for investors to obtain EU citizenship in the future, at which point the Montenegro passport may be upgraded to an EU passport! As of December 31, 2021, there is only about one year left to apply!

Montenegro’s EU accession accelerates, making its Citizenship by Investment Programme a shortcut to obtaining an EU passport.
Currently, Montenegro is a country with a clear timeline for EU accession, with the European Commission publicly stating that “Montenegro may join the EU by 2025”! Good news: the European Commission recently reiterated that at least one country will join the EU during its term, and Montenegro is the most likely candidate. It is worth mentioning that the current European Commission took office in 2019 for a 5-year term. According to their assessment, Montenegro may join the EU by 2024, further accelerating the timeline!
Among the countries currently offering citizenship by investment programs, Montenegro is an EU candidate country located in the region of EU Eastern enlargement that uses the Euro as its official currency. With its advantages such as fast approval times, short processing cycles, eligibility to apply for the US E-2 visa, and investment assets denominated in Euros, the Montenegro Citizenship by Investment Programme is considered by the immigration industry to be a “potential stock” and a “high-growth stock” with broad development prospects!
Currently, many high-net-worth individuals worldwide with needs for overseas asset allocation have turned their attention to Montenegro. The Montenegro Citizenship by Investment Programme has become a prime choice for investors for overseas investment, business operation, identity planning, and health planning! For investors, it is essential to act quickly to invest in the time-limited and quota-restricted Montenegro Citizenship by Investment Programme before the country joins the EU!
As one of the few countries that treats the tourism industry as a pillar of its national economy, Montenegro has always prioritized tourism development, achieving leapfrog growth. The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) ranks Montenegro first on its list of countries where “tourism is a strategic industry.” In the next decade, Montenegro’s tourism industry is expected to grow at a rate of 8.8%. Calculated by compound annual growth rate, in five years, the tourism industry in Montenegro is expected to have 50% growth potential!
Major good news! Currently, the Montenegro government-approved citizenship-by-investment projects—the "Bjelasica 1450 Hotel" and "Breza Hotel"—are located in the mature tourist region of northern Montenegro, offering broad investment prospects! Furthermore, this is one of the immigration projects in the European investment immigration market with a shorter investment term; there is no holding period restriction, and investors can freely resell the property after the title transfer, making it highly sought after! Starting from 350,000 euros, you can not only gain real estate with permanent property rights but also apply for a passport for the whole family from Montenegro, an EU candidate country, achieving a win-win for both overseas real estate and overseas status!
