FAQs
Who approves Antigua and Barbuda applications?
Antigua and Barbuda Citizenship by Investment Unit makes the final decision. Dynasty Migration prepares and guides the application but does not issue or guarantee visas, permits or citizenship.
Are government fees included in the investment amount?
No. The qualifying asset and government fees are separate amounts. Dynasty Migration professional fees are also separate and quoted on consultation.
What does Antigua and Barbuda not give me?
