The authorities of Nauru have introduced changes to the rules of the Nauru Economic and Climate Resilience Citizenship Program. The new provisions are already in effect and concern updated pricing, the removal of restrictions for family members of the applicant, and a special promotional offer with a reduced investment threshold.
Updated Pricing Policy and Special Offer
The Nauru Citizenship by Investment program has shifted from a family-based fee model to an individual-based system. This change increases transparency and aligns with international compliance standards for due diligence checks.
Although the base contribution is now set at $115,000, reductions in associated fees have significantly lowered the total cost for investors.
Current Participation Costs
- Contribution to the government fund — $90,000 (under the limited-time anniversary offer)
- Application fees:
- Principal applicant — $5,000
- Dependents — $2,000 each
- Due Diligence:
- Principal applicant — $6,000
- Dependents — $3,000 each
The total budget for a single applicant previously reached around $141,000. Under the special offer, it is approximately $101,000 (excluding banking fees and separately paid licensed agent services).
Expanded Opportunities for Families
Authorities have removed age limits and financial dependency requirements for family members.
Applications can now include:
- Children (no age restrictions)
- Spouse
- Parents, grandparents (no age restrictions)
- Siblings of the applicant or spouse (including married siblings, whereas previously only unmarried siblings were allowed)
