As part of an initiative to achieve the highest security standards for holders of Dominica passports, the government authorities announced last year the adoption of the electronic passport, which contains biometric information of its holders, replacing the traditional paper passport.
This updated passport features advanced technology, including all vital data related to the holder, from fingerprints to the digital map of the face, eye scan, and more. The new passport is expected to assist the government of Dominica in addressing the growing threats of identity theft, enhancing border security, and ensuring the safety of its citizens and residents.
In this context, the relevant authorities in Dominica have announced that the deadline for holders of paper passports wishing to renew them to the updated electronic version has been extended to August 30, 2022, after the original deadline of July 30, 2023.
The Dominica Citizenship by Investment program was launched in 1993, becoming one of the most preferred programs for investors seeking to secure a second passport. This can be achieved either through non-refundable contributions to government development funds or by purchasing real estate in the finest tourist resorts in Dominica.
