How to read this page
We only publish a figure when an official CBI unit or government page (or gazetted instrument) confirms it. Agent, broker and media figures are not used as fact. Visa-free destination counts are omitted unless the official unit publishes them.
CBI is a contribution/investment route to citizenship, not income-based residency.
Estimates, not legal or immigration advice. Fees change; authorised agents and the unit apply their own processes. Confirm on the official page before you apply. See our affiliate and sponsorship disclosure — no CBI affiliate links are active on YieldVisa right now.
