Most families get trapped in the “CBI loop,” (Citizenship by Investment) assuming Caribbean residency requires a $100,000+ price tag.
The reality? The Dominican Republic offers a much more accessible path without the massive investment fees. But the real secret isn’t just the visa; it’s how you actually execute the move!
The Residency Breakdown:
Pensionado Category: Requires a pension of at least $1,500/month.
Rentista Category: Requires $2,000/month in stable passive income.
Ordinary Residency: A standard route with no minimum investment.
Efficiency: Process completes in roughly 30 to 60 days with a single entry.
Naturalization: A clear path to citizenship in as little as 2 years.
Moving your family isn’t just about filing forms; it’s about ground-level logistics. You need to know which school districts have capacity, which zones actually support professional-grade remote work, and which neighborhoods offer long-term stability.
