    Cyprus, Portugal, Malta, Greece, Italy

    This is the list of EU countries that~~ are selling passport~~ have a “Citizen by investment” program.

    I don’t think any of the rich buying a Cypriot passport is planning to move to Cyprus.

    They are just buying an passport that will allow them the move their business, money and maybe themselves in the European Union.

        In 2015 we actually looked into The Netherlands a bit. At least at the time, under the terms of the Dutch-American Friendship Treaty it was possible to invest < €5k to tick the “benefit to Dutch national interests” requirement for long term residency (and thus a path to citizenship). Not sure if this holds true today.

        And yes, the name of the treaty spells out “DAFT” haha.
