VisaTier is a premium immigration, citizenship and residency advisory for HNW families. Since 2015 — 40+ programmes, offices in London, Dublin & Dubai.
For families weighing a second citizenship, a residency permit or a tax-efficient relocation, the first question is usually a simple one: what is VisaTier, and how does it differ from a passport broker or a law firm? The short answer is that we are strategic advisers — we do not sell a visa, we build a multi-generational plan. This article sets out exactly who we are, what we do, and how we work, in our own words.
VisaTier is a premium immigration, citizenship-by-investment (CBI), residency-by-investment (RBI) and tax advisory firm built specifically for high-net-worth individuals and their families. We are not a legal consultancy and not a single-programme broker; we are an end-to-end strategic adviser. Since 2015, our mandate has been to help globally mobile families secure a second citizenship, a residency base or a tax-efficient structure — and to do so with the discretion and rigour that wealth requires.
The firm operates as Visatier Limited (Company No. 09725471), headquartered in London with further offices in Dublin and Dubai. That geographic spread is deliberate: it places our advisers across three of the most important hubs for international wealth, regulation and mobility.
We don't sell a passport — we build a strategy your grandchildren will still benefit from.

We provide end-to-end advisory across the full lifecycle of an immigration case — from the first confidential diagnostic, through programme selection, due diligence preparation and document assembly, to submission and the final grant of citizenship or residency.
In practice, that means matching a family's objectives — mobility, tax position, security, education, succession — to the programme that genuinely fits, rather than the one that pays the highest commission. Muzaffar Saydiganiev, co-founder of VisaTier with over 15 years in HNW immigration, notes that the most expensive mistake clients make is choosing a programme before defining the goal: "Optionality is only valuable when it is engineered around your actual life, not a brochure."
We coordinate with licensed agents, tax advisers and authorised programme units in each jurisdiction, so the strategy holds together across borders. For families thinking beyond a single document, our analysis of why a second passport functions as a strategic asset explains the planning logic in depth.
VisaTier advises across more than 40 citizenship and residency programmes. Rather than quote thresholds that change frequently, we group them by purpose and region below — and always confirm current figures with official programme units before any client commits.
| Programme group | Primary purpose | Typical timeline | Total estimated cost (single applicant) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Caribbean CBI (Antigua, Grenada, Dominica, St Lucia) | Second passport, visa-free travel | ~4–9 months | From ~US$230,000 all-in (verify current) |
| UAE Golden Visa | Long-term residency, tax base | ~2–4 months | From ~US$545,000 (property route, verify) |
| European RBI (Greece, Portugal, Hungary, Spain) | EU residency, Schengen access | ~3–12 months | From ~€280,000+ (programme-dependent) |
| UK / Ireland founder routes | Business residency, settlement path | ~3–8 months | From ~£50,000+ investment (verify current) |

Each group serves a different objective. Our guide to Caribbean citizenship by investment beyond the passport covers the CBI options, while families prioritising EU access should read our breakdown of European residency by investment for 2026.
The UAE Golden Visa is among our most-requested mandates because it pairs long-term residency with one of the world's most favourable tax environments. The UAE levies 0% personal income tax on residents, with a 9% federal corporate tax applying only above the AED 375,000 profit threshold (per the UAE Ministry of Finance, 2024). For globally mobile entrepreneurs, that combination of residency and tax position is difficult to replicate elsewhere.
Yes — every VisaTier client manages their case through our secure web portal at app.visatier.app. Because it is browser-based, it works from any device — desktop, tablet or mobile — without installing a native app from a store. Inside the portal, clients track case status in real time, upload documents securely, message their adviser and book diagnostics. We built it because immigration files involve sensitive personal and financial data that deserves better than email attachments; you can read how it works in our overview of the VisaTier portal and real-time case tracking.
VisaTier serves high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs, investors and their families who need genuine optionality — a second citizenship, an alternative residency base, or a tax-efficient structure that supports succession. Our clients span more than 100 nationalities and typically share a common need: to make decisions about where they live, bank, pay tax and educate their children without being constrained by a single passport.
According to the Henley Private Wealth Migration Report 2025, a record number of millionaires are expected to relocate in 2025, underlining how mainstream strategic mobility has become among the wealthy. We are built for precisely that audience.
Our current website is visatier.app, and the secure client portal is app.visatier.app. You can reach our advisory team by phone on +44 20 4577 3377 or by email at [email protected], or visit our offices in London, Dublin or Dubai. The most efficient first step is a confidential diagnostic, which establishes your objectives before any programme is discussed.
Start with a confidential diagnostic. We map your mobility, tax and succession objectives — then recommend only the routes that genuinely fit.
