I had a fantastic experience with the advisors Farzona and Melanie in Citizenship Invest Dubai office. They provided excellent support in securing Antigua and Barbuda citizenship for my family of 4. We received our passports in November 2024 within period of almost 8 months. But the team was available throughout the process for guidance and support. Thank you Farzona and Melanie.

I would like to highlight the high level of professionalism of this team. I especially appreciate the work of the department head, Farzona. The file for obtaining a Grenada passport was prepared in the shortest possible time, and there was not a single question during the entire audit process. I have had experience working with other teams, and IC definitely stands out in a positive way.
