Argentina Prepares to Launch $500,000 Citizenship by Investment Program
The Argentine government is preparing to introduce a new citizenship by investment program that could become one of Latin America's most attractive options.
Sierra Leone, a West African nation known for its rich cultural heritage and post-conflict resilience, offers citizenship through various legal pathways. Governed by the 1973 Citizenship Act and subsequent amendments, including the pivotal 2006 law permitting dual citizenship, the country’s framework balances inclusivity with regulatory oversight. Citizenship can be acquired by birth, descent, naturalization, or investment, reflecting both historical ties and modern economic priorities. Sierra Leonean citizenship grants rights such as voting, property ownership, and diplomatic protection, alongside responsibilities like allegiance to the state. Despite challenges, the nation emphasizes unity in its diverse population of over 8 million, fostering a sense of belonging rooted in shared history and aspirations for development.
Sierra Leone’s real estate market is characterized by affordability relative to global standards, though prices vary significantly by location. In Freetown, the capital, prime areas like Aberdeen and Lumley command higher premiums. A modern two-bedroom apartment in these neighborhoods ranges from $80,000 to $250,000, while luxury villas near the coast can exceed $500,000.
Secondary cities such as Bo, Kenema, and Makeni offer more accessible options, with properties often 30–50% cheaper than those in Freetown. Rural areas, though underdeveloped, present opportunities for land purchases at minimal costs (as low as $5,000–$20,000).
Foreign buyers are permitted to own property but must obtain government approval, a process streamlined since the 2006 reforms to attract investment. The market remains nascent but growing, driven by tourism potential and infrastructure projects, making it a strategic choice for long-term investors.
The Citizenship by Investment Program (CIP), though less formalized than global counterparts, allows contributions to national development. Option include:
Sierra Leone’s income tax system applies progressive rates for residents: earnings up to 6,000 SLL/month are tax-free, 15% for 6,001–35,000 SLL, and 30% above 35,000 SLL. Non-residents pay a flat 30% on local income. Corporate tax varies by sector: 25% standard, 15% for agriculture, and 30–37.5% for mining. A 10% withholding tax applies to non-resident dividends, interest, and royalties. VAT is 15%, excluding essentials, while social security contributions total 10% (split equally between employer and employee). The National Revenue Authority oversees tax collection, though enforcement gaps and informal sector challenges persist. Recent reforms aim to digitalize processes and broaden compliance.
Resident individuals in Sierra Leone are exempt from domestic income tax on foreign-source employment income if:
Key implication: Prevents double taxation on income taxed abroad.
Resident taxpayers may claim a credit against their Sierra Leonean tax liability for:
Purpose: Mitigation of double taxation.
An individual is classified as a tax resident if they meet either criterion:

I thank One World Migration for the opportunity to move to Turkey with their help. I looked to relocate my company to be closer to my European partners and suppliers from the Middle East.
I first came to Portugal as a tourist 3 years ago. Having assessed the situation and got acquainted with this country, I decided that I wanted to stay here to live. Thanks to the efforts of One World Migration, this became possible.
The decisive factor for me in my decision to obtain Grenadian citizenship was the possibility of a visa-free visit to Europe, where my husband and I love to come both on business trips and on vacation. Thank you One World Migration!
I have to thank OneWorld Immigration and their customer mentality for the Grenada citizenship. They were able to prepare all the necessary documents in the shortest possible time and without undue worry and accompanied us throughout the entire process.
No, there are no nationality restrictions.
