2) Portugal - 350k euros OR 500k euros. All in property so reedemable. 6 year. No physical residency required, but property counts as residence and gives EU visa for all 6 years until citizenship and passport is possible. European Union, Schengen Area.
Can also employ 10 Portugal citizens for work. Likely as low as 90k euros per year. Obtains EU visa and by year 6 you an get passport.
3) Cyprus - similar to Malta and is EU but not Schengen Area. Might take a little longer too.
4) Austria - informal kickback process, but follows due process. 10 million euro+
5 - 10) Caribbean countries that are not EU so I don't care. Low 6 figures. Known to revoke purchased passports when indicted of a crime somewhere else in the world. Long after having a clean background check and being approved and not being accused of any crime.
