      For $350-$375 it’s worth it through descent but to invest $200,000 that’s not worth it. The Dominican Republic passport is very very terrible. It’s a tier-D passport a Jamaican passport is tier-C and alot better than that one and it also sucks. If you’re getting it for free then it’s worth it.

      @nygeeJones need to do more research. Think about why someone would spend 100-200k on a passport. If you're making over 2-3 million a year you are saving way more by being in a territorial tax system such as the DR. DRs passport is weak for traveling but theres Pro's

    Great video! It's definitely not free or cheap in many cases for average people though. Gathering official documents and having them apostilled is not cheap. In many cases you need an immigration professional and/or lawyer to help with the process, and in some cases you may need to file legal cases in court depending on the complexity of your case (as I had to do). If you are American, there are also a lot of issues related to last name changes or misspellings after your relative immigrated which need to be sorted out. I agree that this is cheaper than citizenship by investment, but it can still run you in the tens of thousands of dollars depending on the country and how complicated your cases is.

      Depende mi rey, en tu caso si algun abuelo o bisabuelo tuyo fue o es español, con el certificado de nacimiento puedes barir un caso para obtener la ciudadania pero toma tiempo, ten en cuenta que a veces no habian certificado de nacimiento, sino partidas de bautizo, por en de si sabes el nombre del pueblo o ciudad de donde viene, puedes preguntar al registro de dicho pueblo si encuentra partida de nacimiento o partida de bautizo. En mi caso, mi bisabuela era vasca tamibien, mi abuela tenia la ciudadania pero se trasladaron a Colombia, eso por parte de mi madre, por parte de mi padre son franceses, pero la cuestion aca es que a diferencia de España, Francia solo te da la ciudadania no solo si lo logras probrar, sino que hay un plazo de 50 años para que reclames la ciudadania. Es decir, si tu abuelo se movio a Colombia, ejemplo, a los 30, tuvo a tu padre a los 38 y el no adquirio la nacionalidad, luego tu padre te tuvo a los 27 y tu conociste esta informaciòn a los 26 ( te lo digo asi porque me paso), ya no puedes aplicar a la nacionalidad, ya que han pasado mas de 50 años para reclamarla. Si optas por la ciudadania de descendencia Española, por experiencia propia, es super rapido el proceso, eso solo en caso de que tengas familia Española aun viva, si es con pruebas y demas, se torna mas demorado, algo asi como 4 años, 5 años si te va bien.

      Cubans want off the island, and for many it’s through their Spanish ancestry, but there’s actually been a backlog of applications for citizenship by descent for Cubans who claim Jamaican heritage (via grandparents) because while it’s not in the same league as an EU passport, the Jamaican passport still provides a lot more travel freedom than a Cuban passport.

      Just don't bother with trying to get citizenship to Monaco. Permanent Residence is all you need. You would 100% have to renounce ALL other citizenships as Monaco don't allow dual citizenship. Once you renounce there's no way to "get back" a citizenship so you can't just "re-apply".
      Also to be able to live in Monaco and be truly tax-free you'd have to not just live there full time, you'd have to sever your ties to the US (citizenship, green card, any US registered businesses, assets, etc.) as the US have citizenship based taxation which can extend to Green Card holders and others with "ties to the USA".
