Budgeting Beyond the Advertised Minimum
The advertised minimum investment is only one component of the total capital required to obtain a second passport. Investors must budget separately for government processing fees, independent background due diligence, mandatory interviews, legal representation, and dependent surcharges.
There is no single global price for a second passport. For example, under Grenada's current statutory fee schedule, the National Transformation Fund route starts at US$235,000, while the approved real estate route starts at US$270,000 (plus a US$50,000 government contribution for a family of up to 4).
A serious investor should always calculate:
Total Budget = Statutory Investment + Due Diligence Fees + Government Processing + Legal Fees + Interview Fees + Certificate & Passport Issuance
