Montenegro CBI Program can get you Citizenship in Three Months
Coronavirus pandemic, national lockdowns, border closures, travel bans soared the interest in second passports, citizenships, and overseas residencies by over 50% in 2020 among wealthy Indians. In addition, the year had seen considerable demand for residencies and citizenship investment programs from high-net-worth individuals seeking alternative options in Europe and the Commonwealth.
Researches have shown that a growing number of people are looking for ways to secure their future while attaining freedom of movement triggered by travel restrictions, typically based on citizenship. The pandemic has acted as a significant catalyst for demand for CBIs and RBIs. The concept of global citizenship is also skyrocketing as high net worth individuals do not just want to be tied to their home country anymore.
Considering the abovementioned facts, Montenegro is one such citizenship by investment program that offers the most affordable CBI in just three months. Furthermore, your investment in Montenegro provides you with a second passport that unlocks global mobility and the opportunity to travel to 130+ countries, including Schengen, the United States, the UK, UAE, China, and Russia.
