Jamaica

Jamaica is an English-speaking Caribbean island nation of roughly 2.8 million people, prized by expatriates for its warm climate, vibrant culture, and relatively low cost of living. Kingston serves as the commercial and government hub, while resort towns such as Montego Bay and Negril attract long-stay visitors. The tax system is residence-based, with no capital-gains tax, making it modestly appealing for passive-income earners. Dual citizenship is permitted. Naturalisation requires five years of lawful residence. Crime rates in urban areas—particularly parts of Kingston—are high, and prospective residents should research neighbourhood safety carefully. Healthcare infrastructure is limited outside private facilities. The Jamaican passport gives visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to approximately 87 destinations.
