Citizenship by Investment Visa

Turkey's Citizenship by Investment (CBI) program is one of the world's fastest and most attractive paths to citizenship. The minimum investment is $400,000 in real estate (must hold for 3 years) or $500,000 in bank deposits, government bonds, investment funds, or job creation (50+ employees). Processing takes 3-6 months from application to passport. Family members including spouse and children under 18 are included at no additional cost. No residence requirements, Turkish language requirements, or renunciation of existing citizenship required. Turkish passport provides visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 110+ countries including Japan, Singapore, and most of Latin America. Also enables E-2 Treaty Investor visa eligibility for the USA.
