Vanuatu Development Support Program (DSP) — government-donation CBI granting 'Honorary Citizenship' with full Ni-Vanuatu rights (except voting). USD 130,000 for single applicant; plus higher tiers for family additions. Direct citizenship — no residency phase required. DSP has been continuously active since launch — sister Capital Investment Immigration Program (CIIP) was briefly suspended March 2025 for 100-day regulatory overhaul but reopened May 2025. Vanuatu Contribution Program (VCP) operates exclusively for Greater China market. The 'Vanuatu CBI is closed' rumor in some 2024-2025 aggregators is INCORRECT — DSP remains the primary program throughout. Vanuatu enters DB as new country. launched_year 2017.
