Vanuatu CBI (30–60 days), Dominica CBI (2–4 months), Thailand DTV (weeks), Georgia Business (30 days), Panama Friendly Nations, UAE Golden (often under 30 days for qualifying HNW). Don’t confuse quick approval with quick settlement — moving day remains the constraint.

Scoring methodology

Programmes are tagged by their own data with the personas they fit. We then add weighting based on persona-specific criteria (income threshold, family inclusion, citizenship timeline, processing speed, presence requirements). Score is a heuristic for ranking — not a recommendation. Each programme's detail page has the full sourced facts.
