Short answer: Caribbean citizenship by investment usually involves due diligence and an interview. Checks focus on identity, background and source of funds; interviews are mostly remote and confirm your application details and motivation.
What due diligence checks
| Area | What’s reviewed |
|---|---|
| Identity | Passports, birth certificates, marriage and family documents |
| Background | Police certificates, career and history |
| Source of funds | How the investment was built up and transferred |
| Other | Any refusals of visas or entry elsewhere |
Countries use international firms for background checks — consistent documents are the key to passing smoothly.
Common interview questions
- Why this country?
- Where do the funds come from?
- Your work, business and family
- What you know about the country, and plans to visit
Most countries now hold remote interviews, generally for family members aged 16 and over.
How to prepare
- Organise the source of funds first, step by step from income, business or asset sales.
- Keep every detail consistent, such as name spellings, addresses and dates.
- Disclose honestly — hiding a refusal or past record is worse than the record itself.
- Practise before the interview, explaining your motivation and funds clearly.
Common causes of delay
- Incomplete source-of-funds evidence
- Translation or notarisation errors
- Inconsistent family details
