Finally they announced the prices after so much back and forth and we never really expected it to launch but here it is.

Anyone who got Vanuatu cbi post Schengen access lost? How is it to travel on to visa free and visa on arrival destinations, and how are you treated at airports or at immigration, or when using it for KYC, opening bank accounts, crypto accounts, or trading accounts? And how are you treated compared to your original nationality? And what about places that require visas like Schengen area, the UK, Canada, Latin America, Japan or Korea? And what about while applying for residency permits or any student/work visas when using this passport? And for those who use it as their only 1, what is it like to use it?
Thanks in advance.

Edit: real experiences only pls, no AI generated stuff.

Hi everyone, we all know how long STP CBI is taking. If youve applied to the São Tomé CBI program, please write down here your application date, current status, and what part is still pending and the one youre at. If youve finished mention the date you finished. This is so that prospective customers who are considering the São Tomé e Principe CBI programme can get a sense of assurance that it is real, since its so hard to find the government gazette or even the Decreto-Lei 07/2025 and any memos.

So according to many industry experts, since Caribbean CBI passports are losing visa free access to the Schengen area after June 2028, and this year they’re adding physical presence requirements, like Antigua and Dominica just did. So will these physical presence requirements remain in place post 2028 once these passports lose visa free access to Schengen countries? Many sources say these countries will reduce their prices and continue operating these programmes. So would removing the physical presence requirements then actually be helpful to them since they now have to compete with low-cost ones like Vanuatu, São Tomé, Nauru, and other African programmes that may pop up, ir will they maintain their exclusivity by keeping the residency requirements or atleast reducing them, for example from 30 days within the first 5 years to just 10-15 or maybe just 5?

Just need your thoughts on this.

Thanks in advance.

Been seeing how STP CBI is facing 6+ months processing delay according to this sub, and its had 200+ applicants so far. Sierra Leone CBI for some reason isnt talked about too much as compared to other CBI’s in this price range. Its priced at 100k if you’re Black, but 140k for everyone else, and has a 60-90 day turnaround time. Anyone whos chosen Sierra Leone, how was your experience, and if you’ve applied, what stage are you at? It also doesn’t ban applicants with 3+ nationalities unlike STP.

Hello, I am an Indian student considering studying in Brazil for a MBA programme and then seeking work, and am open to learning Portuguese. So what are the job opportunities like in Brazil for someone whos into marketing and logistics, and i am fascinated by Brazilian and latin american culture. I plan to move by 2029, so tell me about some must-knows and top universities which are well known worldwide, and what kind of companies are here. As per your experience, whats the work culture like here? Tell me what skills are most in-demand in Brazil, and whether remote work or local market is better.

I was initially planning to study and work for some years in Europe before moving to LATAM, but the change in immigration policies there, along with the poor management of the heatwave and severe restrictions on using AC, its making me reconsider Europe. I’m considering Latin America, since i am already learning Spanish, and am open to Portuguese too, and am willing to embrace the culture. And since Brazil and LATAM are great in general for cost of living, its also great incase rupee depreciation gets worse.

So let me know about which are the top unis (public and private) and also the methodology, and any scholarships available. Also tell me about your own experience in terms of post-study opportunities, lifestyle, and citizenship pathways.

Obrigados.

Different websites show different prices, some say 1 million USD others say 245k. How much is the actual cost, and how much do they charge normally, or do their rates vary? And those who got it, what was the process like, and how much did it cost yall? And did they charge additional money for dependents or was it free? What about government fees, etc?

The title. Can you apply to CBI programmes as the main applicant if you’re 18+, but are a student full time who is financially dependent on parents, and parents transfer you the money as a gift? Or do you need to apply as a dependent with 1 parent as the main applicant? Thanks in advance.

PS: im talking about Caribbean ones, Vanuatu, São Tomé, and Nauru. Speaking only legal aspects wise.

Hello, so Sierra Leone offers a PR pathway by gold investment, and many sources online say that they dont need any residency for the 5 year period to he able to get citizenship. Is that true? So if anyone has gone through the process or applied via donation pathway, let me know.

Hello, so im looking for an iPod touch with higher storage (atleast 16/32 gb) in good condition or a Classic which is in good condition and of any capacity, since i may upgrade it. I am planning to buy them as a collectible, and been feeling nostalgic, and i never got to use one ever. iPods have been a bit in style these days, so i am looking at something that is a collectors item, and am ready to carry out a restoration project as a hobby, and im just starting out, so preferring something in good enough condition. Would prefer it to be under 5k ideally.
