Vanuatu, with the whole process in view.

Vanuatu can belong in a second-citizenship plan, but its travel access must be assessed as it exists today. The EU ended Vanuatu’s visa exemption, and the UK requires visas for Vanuatu nationals subject to its applicable exceptions. A plan built on unrestricted Schengen or UK entry therefore fails at the first check.

Write down the destinations that matter and the purpose of each trip. Tourism, employment and long-term residence are different permissions. Compare the route against those actual requirements, then examine household eligibility, contribution affordability and the effort required to document your funds. Government approval remains a decision made on the application, not an entitlement created by a quote.

The current household, fee basis and payment instructions must be confirmed before commitment. The official page includes schedules from different instruments; an added family member, route change or particular requirement must be reconciled with the applicable current schedule rather than inferred from a marketing calculator.

Budget separately for professional services, document reissue, certification, translation, courier work and any required travel or appointments. Professional fees are quoted after the strategy session. The written engagement should show who receives each payment, when it is due and the refund terms that apply to that specific charge.

DSP is the contribution route discussed here. If a proposed alternative includes a fund or investment component, obtain its current legal basis, subscription documents, expenses, asset exposure and redemption terms. Do not subtract a hoped-for future return from today’s cash requirement and call the result a guaranteed net cost.

An investment may introduce market, liquidity and counterparty risks in addition to the citizenship application. Citizenship approval and recovery of invested capital are different outcomes. A recommendation should state the reason for choosing a route and the risks you keep, rather than relying on the lowest headline figure.
