The government investment program of Antigua and Barbuda is relatively new in the Caribbean. This was launched only in 2013. This program offers lifetime citizenship to many foreign clients who invest in the islands by way of donation that amounts to USD 100,000 or under real estate for USD $400,000. It may also be a business investment that amounts to US $1,500,000 as an eligible business for sole investment or joint which involves two individuals. The latter must amount to US $5,000,000.
