SORUCE: ALJAZEERA-<\/strong> In an era of political volatility and rising global uncertainty, a growing number of Americans are seeking second passports as a safety net against future instability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to citizenship and residency advisory firms such as Latitude Group and Arton Capital, demand from United States citizens for second passports or long-term residency in other countries \u2013 often through investment schemes offered by those countries \u2013 has surged dramatically in recent years. The election of Donald Trump as US president appears to have turbocharged that trend.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Arton has reported a 400 percent increase in the number of its US clients in the first three months of 2025 compared with the same period in 2024, while Latitude said US applications for second citizenship or residency have risen by 1,000 percent since 2020, right after the COVID pandemic hit and travel restrictions were at their peak.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

There are no official records of the number of American citizens seeking second passports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, industry estimates shared with Al Jazeera suggest that of roughly 10,000 global applications for second passports in the past few years, about 4,000 have come from Americans. While the overall number of applications has remained consistent for many years, the proportion of them coming from US applicants has increased significantly since the pandemic. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

What was once considered the domain of billionaires and business owners is now increasingly attracting professionals and politically concerned citizens seeking a \u201cPlan B\u201d \u2013 an exit route if, as they fear, they find it harder to live in the US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it,\u201d said Christopher Willis, managing partner at the Latitude Group, which helps clients secure second citizenship and residency through investment schemes.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

These programmes, often called \u201cgolden visas\u201d or \u201ccitizenship-by-investment\u201d schemes, allow individuals to obtain long-term residency or even citizenship in exchange for a financial contribution \u2013 usually via real estate investment, a donation to a national development fund or the purchase of government bonds.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Investment requirements vary by programme and location, ranging from as little as 10,000 euros ($10,800) to more than one million euros ($1.08m).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not all programmes necessarily lead to full citizenship or a passport, but they do offer the right to residency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Residency-by-investment schemes, such as Portugal\u2019s Golden Visa or Greece\u2019s equivalent scheme, offer long-term residence and the right to freedom of travel within the EU\u2019s Schengen Zone but do not grant citizenship immediately. In Portugal, however, the programme does provide a five-year pathway to citizenship with minimal residency requirements \u2013 an average of 14 days every two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Citizenship-by-investment schemes, offered by Malta and several Caribbean countries, can lead to full passports in as little as 16 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Latitude, 50 percent of its US clients now choose Portugal\u2019s Golden Visa as their top pick, followed by Malta (25 percent) and Caribbean nations (15 percent). About 80 percent of those clients say they have no immediate plans to relocate; they simply want the comfort of knowing they have the option to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most countries that provide citizenship also have options to transfer this to next generations of children, as well as grandchildren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second passports are now being sought by a much broader range of society than just billionaires and high-net-worth business owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

David Lesperance, a Poland-based international tax and immigration adviser, said his American clients include LGBTQ individuals, major political donors and people concerned by what they perceive as authoritarian trends in US governance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019ve never been busier,\u201d he told Al Jazeera, adding that people who have never thought about leaving the US are suddenly thinking \u201cvery seriously\u201d about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Kristin Surak, a political sociologist at the London School of Economics and author of The Golden Passport, said she has seen a rise in the number of what she calls \u201cArmageddon Americans\u201d \u2013 those who feel that the country\u2019s direction is so uncertain that a second citizenship is a rational safeguard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Willis said Americans now rank among Latitude\u2019s top three client groups, after China and India. Arton Capital also confirmed a sharp uptick from US nationals \u2013 including both high-net-worth individuals and professionals who are anxious about the\u00a0current political climate<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The return of Donald Trump to the US presidency in 2025, along with a wave of executive orders targeting civil liberties<\/a>, immigration protections and minority rights<\/a> have prompted concern among many groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI got nine applicants in seven days after one of those orders,\u201d Lesperance said, citing a wave of fear among LGBTQ clients, in particular, following a \u201cgender ideology\u201d executive order that recognised male and female as the only two sexes and reversed several protections for transgender people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some people, says Lesperance, worry about being added to political watchlists compiled by allies of the president such as Kash Patel, Trump\u2019s pick to lead the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Others, such as supporters of last year\u2019s student-led pro-Palestine protests, say they feel increasingly vulnerable amid the Trump administration\u2019s attempt to\u00a0crack down<\/a>\u00a0on pro-Palestine activities on US campuses and\u00a0deport several students involved<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lesperance also points to the rise in frequency of disasters such as the recent California wildfires<\/a>, mass shootings<\/a> and deepening ideological divides as additional drivers of anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe US is becoming a wildfire zone,\u201d he said. \u201cMass shootings, a dramatic increase in \u2026 racism. And if you\u2019re politically active, it means half the country doesn\u2019t like you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some families, second citizenship is a financial decision. Some choose real estate investments in Caribbean nations including Grenada and Antigua and Barbuda that come with passports in as little as six months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
