Indian citizens can apply for Vanuatu citizenship by investment, but India does not permit dual citizenship — so this step needs careful thought. Many Indians pursue it while planning their long-term residency and OCI status. We advise on the full picture before you commit.

Dual citizenship: India does not recognise dual citizenship. Acquiring another nationality generally requires renouncing Indian citizenship; the Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card is the usual alternative status afterwards. This is a serious decision — take legal advice before proceeding.

Your passport vs a Vanuatu passport

An Indian passport gives visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to roughly 57 destinations. A Vanuatu passport reaches around 90 and is obtained in about two months, fully remotely — useful for global mobility and business. But because India requires renouncing citizenship to hold another, weigh this against OCI and your residency plans.
