EU threatens five Caribbean nations with visa curbs over “golden passport” programs

PartnershipsEuropean UnionDominica
So what?  Visa-free access is these islands’ central selling point in the citizenship-by-investment market, so a suspension threat aimed directly at that leverage is more likely to force real program changes than the token reforms offered in past rounds of EU pressure. A resulting tightening of Caribbean investor-visa vetting would close off a document route that has occasionally surfaced in cases of identity fraud and sanctions evasion tied to third-country nationals.
