THE SUPPORT YOU NEED
We’re with you every step of the way
Step 1
Submit your documents
Step 2
Vilapass support check
Our expert support team will check your documents, including checking your application form is completed correctly. We will suggest any amendments that may help to influence a successful outcome for your application.
Step 3
Background check
The government requires the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) checks your records, including blacklist, criminal, financial, corporate, terrorism, political activity and so on. The FIU’s non-refundable fee is due at this step.
Step 4
Due diligence
Once cleared by the FIU, you’ll undergo a due diligence check. You’ll need to supply proof of the source of these funds as part of the due diligence verification. 95% of applicants that are cleared by the FIU and who pass due diligence go on to successfully attain citizenship of Vanuatu.
Step 5
Application review
Your application will be reviewed by the appropriate official bodies. This final review process provides you with a letter of endorsement from the Vanuatu Citizenship Commission to the government. The final fee is due at this step.
Step 6
Citizenship ceremony
You’ll need to complete the oath and swearing in ceremony in order to finish the citizenship process. You’ll then be presented with your citizenship certificate. The ceremony can be held in an approved Vilapass location outside of Vanuatu.
Step 7
Passport issued
Once you’re an official citizen of Vanuatu we can issue your passport documents. You can stop the process at this step, or move on to step eight if you wish. Simply discuss your preferences with your Vilapass agent or sub-agent.
Step 8

A bank account can be opened in your name on your behalf. Vilapass can advise you on the best option for your needs during the application process.
