Your guide to citizenships and passports
What is the Identity Strategist?
When I began Identity Strategist I came with a single premise in mind - to help people navigate a future where individuals can’t come to rely on their home country and need to migrate in the best interests of their careers, their families and even for simple safety. Having a single nationality means you are the mercy of that single government, the taxes that fall due, the countries that single country’s passport allows you to travel to, and potentially everything else in your life.
If your country goes to war, you could be liable for military service. If your country is indebted and decides to print more money, then the value of all your savings will evaporate. Hyperinflation becomes a reality causing social unrest with no option to escape. If your political views are out of step with your country of citizenship you could even have your rights restricted.

Why having a second passport counts
Having a second passport means access to opportunities to live, work and reside in another country. Countries such as Cyprus and the Comoros offer economic citizenship (and passports that come with citizenship) as an insurance policy that is one of kind. Whatever happens, it means that you will always have a place to go live, work, invest and raise a family. There are new doors opened to you that might not be available to anyone else.
There are three main ways to access passports. The first, is by descent. If you are lucky enough to be born with a parent, parents, or grandparents with a citizenship different to your own, you may be eligible to claim citizenship by descent.
The second way is to live in the country, possibly gain residency which forms the basis of an eventual pathway to citizenship. This takes years.
The third way is economic citizenship, with the most affordable being the Comoros and many island nations in the Caribbean charging up to $250,000 USD. Click below for the latest in the Identity Strategist's Citizenship Series.
