A small Adriatic country with beautiful coasts and luxurious resorts, vast mountain ranges and big ambitions has an offer that resembles no other; but you’ll have to act fast to get it. Montenegro, a small nation in the midst of the Balkans is one of the few European Nations to incorporate a citizenship by investment program, where investors are able to either contribute to a development fund or purchase a qualifying real estate to acquire a Montenegrin passport.

We know what you’re thinking: What makes this tiny European any more appealing compared to the likes of Bulgaria, Malta or the multitude of Caribbean nations offering citizenship opportunities? Montenegro, through its bureaucratical accession push beginning in 2007, looks almost set to become a member of the European Union no later than 2025. Currently the consensus among the EU is that Montenegro is well advanced in its EU accession process and that the EU remains fully committed to Montenegro's future in the European Union.[1] While the foreseeable due date for full membership is 2025, Montenegrins are already able to enter the EU’s Schengen Zone visa-free and enjoy the economical stability that the Euro brings as official currency.

As it stands, the European Commissioner is not in favor of programs that enable outsiders to acquire citizenship through various investment methods, like the program Montenegro is currently offering. Consequently, Cyprus has been pressured into closing its program entirely with Malta reforming its own CBI policies. This attitude of the European Commissioner has tied Montenegro’s hands and left the Montenegrin Government with no option but to set an end date for the CBI program: The scheme is set to officially end on 31 December 2021. Those who are interested in obtaining a Montenegrin passport should submit their applications with a preferred investment method before the official deadline. Those who submit an application before the program closes and successfully obtain a Montenegrin passport are set to become EU citizens when Montenegro joins the Union in 2025. This means complete freedom to live, work and travel anywhere within the European Union and enjoy the many benefits it entails.
