HOW TO GET A DOMINICAN PASSPORT?
OVERVIEW
Dominica is a Caribbean country offering citizenship through investment. The program grants citizenship in exchange for a government-approved investment. Applications are submitted through an officially authorized agent. Dubai-based DKD Global manages the process end to end for United Arab Emirates clients. The goal is a fast, compliant, and well-documented file. This model serves both single applicants and families.
INVESTMENT OPTIONS
Dominica offers two main investment routes. First is a contribution to the Economic Diversification Fund. Second is an approved real estate investment option. Both routes lead to the same citizenship outcome. Your choice depends on budget and objectives. The donation route is simpler to structure. The real estate route suits applicants who prefer holding an asset.
HOW MUCH INVESTMENT IS REQUIRED?
Under the EDF route, the minimum contribution is US$200,000 for a main applicant. For a family with up to three dependents, the contribution is US$250,000. Each additional dependent under 18 adds US$25,000. Each additional dependent aged 18 or older adds US$40,000. Under real estate, the minimum investment is US$200,000. The investment must be in an approved project. The property must be held for at least three years. If sold to another CBI applicant, the holding period becomes five years.
STATE FEES IN REAL ESTATE
Under the real estate route, the main applicant fee is US$75,000. For a family with up to three dependents, the fee is US$100,000. Each additional dependent under 18 adds US$25,000. Each additional dependent aged 18 or older adds US$40,000. The EDF route does not add a separate state fee. However, both routes include due diligence and processing charges. Real estate files include the sale agreement in the submission.
FAMILY MEMBERS AND ELIGIBLE DEPENDENTS
Applications may include a spouse, children, and parents. Some files may also include grandparents. Dependents aged 18 to 30 need proof of enrollment. Adult dependents require a notarized support declaration. Each dependent provides a passport and relationship evidence. Age and status must be verified with official documents.
BASIC REQUIREMENTS
Applicants must be at least 18 years old. You must prove the funds come from lawful sources. Identity, address, and civil status documents are prepared. Applicants aged 16 or older provide fingerprints. Applicants aged 12 or older submit an HIV test. Blood and urine test results are also submitted. Documents not in English require certified translation. Government documents may require apostille or consular legalization.
FILE PREPARATION AND VERIFICATION
All copies should be prepared as certified true copies. The authorized agent performs initial KYC screening. Forms are completed in full, and signatures are verified.

HOW THE APPLICATION PROCESS WORKS
Eligibility is clarified through a pre-assessment. Then the file is submitted through an official authorized agent. An application processing fee of US$1,000 is paid at submission. Due diligence is US$7,500 for the main applicant. Due diligence is US$4,000 for the spouse. Each dependent aged 16 or older pays US$4,000. Every person aged 16 or older attends an interview. The interview fee is US$1,000 per person. Some cases may trigger additional review fees.
TIMELINE
Approval typically takes three to four months. During this period, detailed background checks are completed. If issues appear, further clarification may be requested. After approval in principle, the investment stage begins. The investment must be completed within 90 days of the letter. Citizenship finalization may take three to six weeks. Preparation quality directly affects the timeline.
CITIZENSHIP AND PASSPORT
After investment, admission to citizenship is processed. Applicants over 18 sign an oath of allegiance form. The naturalisation certificate fee is US$500 per person. The certificate is official proof of citizenship. Passport application follows after the certificate. The passport fee is US$500 per person. Passports are typically tracked through the authorized agent.
TRAVEL AND RESIDENCY CONDITIONS
Travel to Dominica is not required for the process. There is no prior residence requirement for citizenship. There is no ongoing residence requirement after citizenship. Dominica passports provide visa-free access to many countries. Access lists can change over time. Travel rights should be checked before planning.
RISKS AND COMPLIANCE
The key issue is clean records and transparent source of funds. Misrepresentation can cause refusal and long-term risk. Date consistency across documents is essential. Bank activity should match a clear explanation. All transfers should include correctly planned bank charges. Short payments can invalidate an investment step. Interview answers must align with the documents.
