QUESTIONS
Common questions
Are all application costs returned after 5 years?
No. Principal redemption follows the bond terms and issuer’s procedures, and the bond pays no interest. The USD 50,000 administration fee is non-refundable. Other application and service charges do not form part of the bond principal.
Is there a guaranteed completion date?
Document preparation, checks, further requests and official processing affect the timeline. No fixed approval date is guaranteed.
Can everything be completed remotely?
Interviews, identity checks, biometrics and other formalities follow the authority’s requirements. Personal attendance cannot be ruled out in advance.

Can another family use the same budget?
Costs depend on each person’s age, relationship and eligibility. The example applies only to the stated family composition; other families require a separate assessment.
Does citizenship establish tax residence?
Citizenship and tax residence are different questions. Original nationality, tax obligations and entry rules of other countries require separate consideration.
