Botswana presents an appealing option for high-net-worth investors seeking a second residency or citizenship. With a stable economy, good governance, and abundant natural resources, it offers favourable conditions for investment and business growth.

BOTSWANA CITIZENSHIP BY INVESTMENT

Botswana does not offer a direct citizenship by investment programme and therefore foreign investors will need to consider other locations. Numerous nations, notably several Caribbean islands, provide citizenship by investment programmes. Investors may consider alternative options such as the Grenada programme, which is emerging as an increasingly popular choice for those pursuing a second citizenship.

BOTSWANA RESIDENCY BY INVESTMENT

Botswana does not have a formal residency by investment or golden visa programme. Such initiatives enable foreign investors to secure a long-term residency visa by making a substantial investment in a country. Europe has several residency investment options they include Malta, Greece, and the Spanish Golden Visa.

BOTSWANA PASSPORT AND STRENGTH AND RANKING

Botswana ranks low at 120th in La Vida’s Global Passport Ranking. Citizens have visa-free entry to 41.9% of countries, covering 23.6% of global travel. More powerful passports are available through various citizenship by investment programmes. As an example the St Lucia passport ranks 79th, providing substantially enhanced global travel privileges, rendering it a favoured citizenship option for high-net-worth individuals.
