Benefits of Antigua & Barbuda Citizenship:

In 2009, the Antigua and Barbuda government signed a visa waiver agreement with the EU which allows an Antigua and Barbuda citizen to visit the Schengen countries without a visa for a period of three months within any six-month period following the date of first entry into any EU country.
The Antigua and Barbuda passport is an excellent travel document for the international client. With an Antigua and Barbuda passport, a citizen can travel with ease to approximately 130 countries throughout the world, including Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore, the UK and Europe. Antigua and Barbuda is a member of the Commonwealth family of countries, comprising 53 independent sovereign states, thus entitling its citizens to certain privileges in the UK and other Commonwealth countries. Further, an Antigua and Barbuda citizen is entitled to take up residence in Antigua and Barbuda at any time. |
