Antigua and Barbuda Residency Without a Job Offer

By VISA AI Editorial TeamReviewed by VISA AI Immigration Research DeskUpdated

Do you want to move to Antigua and Barbuda but have no employer there? Good news. Caribbean CBI skips all work visas. You do not need a job, employer, or income from Antigua to qualify for the passport. Here are the best paths.

The Citizenship by Investment route

The Antigua and Barbuda Citizenship by Investment is the most popular path with no job offer. Minimum $230,000 NDF donation or $300,000 real estate. Family of 4 included. Visa-free to UK and Schengen. 5 days of physical presence over 5 years.

Other no-employer paths

Beyond the Citizenship by Investment, you can use a passive income visa (rentista), a self-sponsored work permit, or a freelance / digital nomad permit. All skip the need for a Antiguan employer.

What you still need

You will need a clean police record from every country you have lived in for 6+ months. You will need proof of funds. And you will need basic health insurance. No degree or language test for most paths.
