UAE residents may also obtain second citizenship from Dominica between three to four months, should they fulfil all the requirements, including due diligence checks.
Qualifying investments start at $100,000 for single applicants, through the Economic Diversification Fund.
Another route to Dominican citizenship is by investing at least $200,000 in pre-approved real estate, which includes already operating luxury hotels, two resorts nearing completion and more.

Dominican citizens can travel without a pre-departure visa to over 140 countries and territories.
Dominicans with a Diplomatic and Official passport can gain UAE entry with a visa upon arrival, while those with and Ordinary Dominica passport can obtain an eVisa. Those who have become economic citizens of Dominica via its Citizenship by Investment (CBI) Programme can subsequently apply for an Ordinary passport, which allows them to enter the UAE based on an eVisa.
"The visa waiver agreement is yet another important step in the development of strong bilateral relations between the Commonwealth of Dominica and this dynamic country," commented Hubert Charles, the Dominican Ambassador to the UAE.
In January, Dominica opened a new embassy in Abu Dhabi, marking the country's first diplomatic mission to the Middle East.
The CBI hotels are building an emerging eco-tourism sector on the Nature Isle of the Caribbean, as Dominica is commonly referred to. The island is also ranked by FDI Strategy as one of the top tourism destinations of the future.
