Questions people ask

Talk to a consultant: Assess my case

Where is Nauru, and is the passport recognised?

Nauru is a small island republic in the central Pacific and a member of the United Nations and the Commonwealth. Its passport is recognised like any other, though its visa-free list is shorter than the Caribbean passports.

Does it give Schengen access?

No. Nauru citizens currently need a visa for the Schengen area. The programme suits families who want a recognised second passport and access to the UK, Ireland, Singapore, Hong Kong and the UAE at a lower cost.

The programme is new. Is that a concern?

It launched in 2025 under a dedicated government office, with due diligence modelled on the Caribbean programmes. Reach is one of its authorised agents, and we tell clients plainly what is new about it and what is established.

Where does the money go?

To the Higher Ground Initiative, the government’s plan to relocate residents and facilities to the island’s higher interior as protection against rising sea levels.
