1. You are free to complete the deal outside Vanuatu. This means that the Oath Swearing Ceremony can be completed at any location that is suitable for the applicant.
2. It is not a must for the applicant to reside in Vanuatu always.
3. citizenship by investment allows for dual citizenship.
4. It is not a must that you should arrive or depart with a Vanuatu passport.
5. It is not required for the applicant to master the Vanuatuan language. Hence no language requirement.

7. Unlike some countries where they discriminate against a lot of countries willing to participate, Vanuatu’s citizenship by investment program is open to almost all countries in the Universe, except for a few countries such as Iraq, North Korea, Yemen, Syria, and Iran.
8. One of the biggest advantages of Vanuatuan citizenship by investment is that any successful applicants will be given a Vanuatu passport which enables the holder to travel to 127 countries and 35 partially recognized countries/territories visa-free or visa on arrival, including the UK and all the European Union countries (Schengen zone) The holder is also free to visit China visa-free.
