On October 12, 2018, the authorities of Antigua and Barbuda announced the extension of the special offer for citizenship through investment , which was submitted a year ago.  

Investors will still be able to obtain citizenship through a charitable contribution to the National Development Fund (NDF) in the amount of USD 100,000 for the applicant and up to three dependent family members and USD 125,000 for a family of 5 or more people.
