The main applicant may include a spouse, dependent parents, and unmarried children (under 18, or up to 25 if they are full-time students). 

Visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 142 countries. After 5 years of residency, investors are eligible for naturalization, with full rights to live, work, and study.

A $300,000 USD investment into titled real estate or hospitality projects. This is a tangible, appreciating asset, not a government contribution or bond.
