Africa's most accessible CBI. The world's most affordable path to second citizenship, launched August 2025.
Sao Tome and Principe is a twin-island nation in the Gulf of Guinea, off the western coast of Central Africa. The second-smallest African country after Seychelles, it is known as 'Africa's hidden paradise' for its pristine beaches, volcanic peaks, and dense rainforests. With a population of approximately 220,000, the islands offer a tranquil, community-oriented lifestyle. Several luxury eco-tourism developments are now underway, positioning the country for significant growth.
Launched on August 1, 2025, Sao Tome and Principe's citizenship by investment program offers the world's most affordable path to second citizenship. The minimum contribution is USD 90,000 for a single applicant, with processing times of just 1 to 3 months. There is no physical residency requirement. The program offers two pathways: a contribution to the Sustainable Island State Contribution (SISC) fund starting at USD 250,000, or a real estate investment of USD 325,000 or more in approved developments. Both routes lead to full citizenship for the applicant and family.
The islands offer a tranquil, tropical lifestyle with pristine natural beauty. The growing eco-tourism sector is attracting luxury resort development, and the country's Portuguese colonial heritage adds cultural depth. For investors seeking an emerging-market opportunity alongside citizenship, Sao Tome represents a unique value proposition.
