NATURE ISLE<br />
Christos Vardikos discusses the benefits of the Dominica citizenship<br />
programme together with the island’s ship registry<br />
The Commonwealth<br />
of Dominica known as<br />
the “Nature Isle of the<br />
Caribbean,” is not a<br />
typical Caribbean Island<br />
like the neighboring<br />
islands of Martinique<br />
and Guadeloupe. Its<br />
mountainous terrain and the 365 rivers<br />
and lakes make it the ideal destination to<br />
rejuvenate, relax and refocus.<br />
With ease of access via daily United Airlines<br />
flights from Miami, the InterContinental<br />
Dominica Cabrits Resort & Spa and the<br />
boutique Hotel Secret Bay are busy<br />
welcoming tourists and a new international<br />
airport is under construction, planned to<br />
open by 2026.<br />
Since 1993, Dominica has been welcoming<br />
foreign investors to become citizens of<br />
the island with full rights, by making an<br />
economic contribution to a government<br />
fund and since 2015, via investment in<br />
Government approved real estate options.<br />
Known as the Citizenship by Investment<br />
Programme (CIP), successful applicants<br />
unlock a wealth of benefits including increased<br />
travel freedom to over 150 countries and<br />
territories, and the ability to pass citizenship<br />
down to future generations. Over the past<br />
six years, Dominica has been ranked as<br />
the best destination for second citizenship<br />
by experts at the Financial Times’ PWM<br />
magazine. Furthermore, the Citizenship<br />
by Investment Unit (CBIU) had introduced<br />
a remote filing process streamlining the<br />
whole process.<br />
The entry level for the CBI Programme is<br />
US$100,000 for the Government Fund and<br />
US$200,000 for the Real Estate option. Both<br />
are cost-effective solutions and the Dominica<br />
CBI option has changed the lives of many people<br />
around the globe. Recently, enhancements<br />
were brought to the programme, including<br />
mandatory interviews and redefining the<br />
qualification of dependents, granting the<br />
possibility of adding new dependents at the<br />
post naturalisation period.<br />
Post Citizenship support services are available<br />
to all newly adopted citizens. Tax and Social<br />
Security Registrations are just to name a<br />
few. For sophisticated investors, who do<br />
not choose the jurisdiction for international<br />
mobility, the citizenship offers advantageous<br />
tax and estate planning solutions.<br />
Dominica also runs a very successful Ship<br />
and Yacht Registry. Registering a Vessel<br />
under the Commonwealth of Dominica is<br />
efficient, straightforward and cost-effective.<br />
Dominica Maritime Registry provides the<br />
client administrative and technical support<br />
throughout the complete process. The<br />
Registry offers owners cost-effective vessel<br />
registration with no tonnage tax or size<br />
restrictions.<br />
Dominica Maritime Registry has many<br />
convenient international locations to process<br />
registrations quickly and electronically to<br />
maintain cost and time effectiveness. One of<br />
the main advantages it offers to the owners,<br />
is to allow private yachts to charter out<br />
for a period of up to 84 days. This will allow<br />
yacht owners the ability to recoup some<br />
of the operational costs associated with<br />
ownership. This chartering privilege exempts<br />
the yacht from having to be registered as a<br />
commercial yacht. The Registry also provides<br />
a free self-inspection programme to help<br />
yacht owners ensure safety on their craft.<br />
Dominica International Maritime Registry<br />
offers technical and statutory services to<br />
their fleet of vessels. Their global network<br />
of inspectors and surveyors allows for easy<br />
survey coordination at competitive pricing.<br />
