Important Infos :

There are many black sheep in this area, which require the investor to transfer the funds to their own company account !. Especially in China and Hong Kong! Please only work with an accredited government agent.
You also need to know that there are two different programs in Vanuatu! One is especially for citizens from China and Korea, which is a bit more expensive, the other is for the rest of the nationalities. An agency claims that it has the exclusive contract. That's a scam! There are 8 direct agents who can sell both variants.
We offer the program, which applies to every nationality and is also cheaper.
We have direct access to the government as well as to the commission and our office also in Vanuatu.
