The Gorgeous Island Nation Is Selling Citizenship for $105,000-but There's One Big Catch
Briefly

Following the U.S. presidential election in November, searches for leaving the country surged, coinciding with Nauru's initiation of a citizenship-by-investment program. The island nation, grappling with climate-induced erosion and land devastation, is offering citizenship for $105,000 to fund relocation of its citizens to safer areas and ensure a sustainable future. Despite buying a passport, individuals cannot live in Nauru, yet experts suggest that a second passport can greatly enhance global mobility and opportunities, reflecting a broader strategy beyond immediate survival for its people.
"In Nauru, it is not just about adapting to climate change, but about securing a sustainable and prosperous future for generations to come," President David Adeang states.
"A second passport isn't just a luxury-it's a strategic asset. It unlocks greater global mobility, granting visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to more destinations," Armand Arton explains.
