Client Requirements
Faisal and Amira are a couple from Bahrain. Faisal co-owns a family logistics holding with branches in the UAE, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia, while Amira runs a boutique perfume store in Manama. Because their business involves international shipments and frequent visits to Europe, they travel there regularly.
A year ago, they decided they no longer wanted to spend time and effort on visa applications and turned to Astons.
During the first consultation, Faisal and Amira made it clear they wanted a passport that would provide global mobility, including visa-free entry to EU countries.
We recommended the Saint Lucia Citizenship by Investment program. The Caribbean passport ranks 30th in global passport strength, granting visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 146 countries.
Citizenship can be obtained remotely via three investment options:
The couple chose real estate for capital preservation and growth, acquiring a $340,000 share in a government-approved resort. Astons handled the entire process, from legal due diligence to document submission. Thanks to established cooperation with Saint Lucia authorities, the process took just over six months and was stress-free.
