3. Mauritius

Mauritius is also considered one of the best countries for migration by investment, offering both the Active Investor Visa and the Golden Visa program, which are highly attractive to investors. The Golden Visa requires a minimum investment of US $375,000 in designated real estate projects, granting immediate permanent residency for the applicant. Citizenship can be obtained after seven years of continuous residency (five years for Commonwealth nation citizens, or two years for those who invest US $500,000). On the other hand, the Active Investor Visa requires a minimum business investment of US $35,000, with residency obtained in 3 years and citizenship in 7 years (5 years for Commonwealth citizens). The application is usually processed in 2-3 months and allows visa-free travel to 146 countries.
