Sierra Leone is a West African country offering investment-based pathways to citizenship and permanent residence.
The Go-For-Gold program provides several participation options. It is important to distinguish between direct citizenship applications and permanent residency routes, as they involve different requirements and procedures.
Benefits of Sierra Leone Citizenship
Second citizenship. Sierra Leone permits multiple citizenships, subject to the laws of the applicant's other countries of citizenship.
Family inclusion. The program provides options for including spouses, children, parents, and certain other eligible relatives.
Remote application procedures. Key document submission and review stages may be completed without permanently residing in Sierra Leone.
Opportunities in West Africa. Sierra Leone participates in regional agreements within the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), which provide certain rights and benefits to citizens of member states.
Business opportunities. Depending on the selected program, applicants may have access to company registration and corporate banking arrangements in Sierra Leone.
Available Investment Routes
Citizenship Through Special Naturalization
The principal investment contribution starts from $140,000.
Additional due diligence fees and charges for family members included in the application may apply.
