Nauru temporarily reduces the cost of its citizenship by investment program

The government of the island Republic of Nauru has announced a temporary reduction in the investment contribution requirements for obtaining citizenship through investment — a measure being implemented for the first time under the national citizenship by investment program. The decision comes amid changing global demand for second citizenship and aims to stimulate foreign investors' interest in the program, which has been active in the country since 2024.

Temporary Reduction in Nauru's Citizenship by Investment Program

From January 29 to June 30, 2026, participants in the program can take advantage of a limited-time offer:

• The basic contribution for a single applicant is reduced to $90,000 (≈ 30% below the standard amount of $115,000, which will take effect on July 1, 2026).
• Separate rates apply for dependent family members and other relatives.

The discount applies only to the investment contribution; application fees and due diligence checks remain unchanged.

Purpose of the Promotion

Representatives of the Nauruan government emphasize that this is a temporary promotion, not a permanent change to the program model, aimed solely at adapting to fluctuations in the international investment migration market. They believe the measure will attract additional funding and strengthen interest in the program amid increased competition from other countries offering citizenship or "golden passports" through investment.

About the “Nauru Citizenship by Investment” Program

The “Citizenship for Economic and Climate Resilience” program (NECRCP) was launched in 2024. Through it, potential investors can obtain a second citizenship by making a direct contribution to a government fund, which, among other things, supports sustainable development and climate adaptation projects.

The application review process takes three to four months, and the passport provides access to over 100 countries and territories visa-free or with simplified entry.

Important! State-offered discounts on investment programs are rare. Typically, the conditions of such initiatives are fixed and reviewed infrequently. Premium promotions like the current one in Nauru may indicate changing market dynamics and attempts to offset declining investor interest in such programs amid economic uncertainty.

After the discount period ends, the terms are likely to return to their original levels, meaning the investment contribution will revert to the standard rate. Therefore, those considering Nauru citizenship should plan their participation within the current promotional period.

Program advantages include no residency requirements, the ability to include a spouse and children in the application, and contributing to the development of a Pacific island nation facing climate and sustainability challenges.

Conclusion

The temporary reduction in the cost of Nauru's citizenship program is a unique opportunity to obtain a “golden passport” at a discounted price. The discount of up to 30% is valid only until June 30, 2026, after which investment contributions will return to standard rates. Those planning to take advantage of the offer should act quickly and plan their application in advance.

To ensure the process is as safe and effective as possible, it is recommended to consult professionals.
