The right connection, the right Agency

Special for that Solution GCI – Global Citizenship Investment

Important for every agent, lawyer or consultant who makes you relevant to this, check whether he knows the respective laws there, whether he is familiar with the respective country and especially, of course, whether he has references. Not often enough can I say that there are more fraudsters in this market than actually serious consultants.
Especially with this variant of citizenship, it is also important to know which subventions you receive from the state, for which projects the state is open, which licenses are required, which business in the respective country has a future. Not to forget how much tax you can pay in the end!
