The value of the programme
For a family of four members (including two children under 18) the citizenship will cost approximately USD130,000. The items of expenses are the following:

• USD100,000 – the amount of gratuitous investment approved by the law which gives the right to apply for granting the citizenship;
• USD200 – application fee collected from every member of the family;
• USD1000 – agency payment paid by every applicant;
• USD1,600 – public fee (per every member of the family);
• USD88 – payment for the form of the passport;
• USD10,000 – authorized agent services;
• USD5,000-7,000 – authorized detective agency due diligence services;
• USD1,500 – payment for signing by the Prime-Minister the Certificate of Naturalization. This amount is charged for every member of the family after the citizenship is obtained.

If in the family there are more than two children under 18, the applicant pays USD150,000 for each child and if the parents have children-dependants between 18 and 25 the applicant pays USD25,000 for each child.
For sole applicants the amount of gratuitous investment is decreased to USD75,000. In this case the citizenship will cost about USD100,000.
Should the citizenship be refused the fees already paid shall not be repaid.
