Adımlar ve Zaman Çizelgesi

  • STEP #1: Determining the eligibility for the citizenship
  • STEP #2: Gather all required documents as per the checklist of each application
  • STEP #3: Completion and lodging of the application
  • STEP #4: Examination of the application by responsible officers
  • STEP #5: Assessment of application by Citizenship Internal Screening Committee
  • STEP #6: Consideration and approval of your application by the Citizenship Commission
  • STEP #7: Issuance of a letter concerning the decision of the Commission on your application
  • STEP #8: Completion of an oath
  • STEP #9: Payment of citizenship fee

Before collecting a citizenship application form, one is advised on whether or not they are eligible to become a Vanuatu citizen. Upon eligibility, you will be advised and provided the correct application form depending on the nature of your eligibility. Each application form has a checklist that requires certain documentation that must be submitted together with the completed form. The application may be returned if the required documents are not provided with the application.

The application will then be perused by the responsible officers and forwarded to the compliance officer for a second examination.

The completed application form including all required documentation will then be forwarded to the Citizenship Internal Screening Committee for further review to ensure that it meets all the requirements before further processing. If the Internal Screening Committee is satisfied with the application, it will then forward it to the Citizenship Commission which is the body responsible for approving citizenship applications. Hence, the approval of the application rests with the Commission.

The Commission may defer or reject the application if one fails to provide a required and valid document or information or to satisfy some specific requirement.

After that one shall receive a letter from the Secretary-General of the Citizenship Office concerning the Commission’s decision on the application. Upon being instructed that the Commission has approved your application, you will also be advised on the final requirements before the issuance of your citizenship certificate, such as:

  • Completion of an oath
  • Provide the correct spelling of your name to be printed on the certificate; and
  • Payment of the citizenship fee

The completion of your oath can only be made if the application has been approved. This requires you to collect an oath form and the authorization letter to the Commissioner of Oath from the Citizenship Office and complete it in the presence of a Commissioner of Oath. Completion of the oath can only be made in Vanuatu’s court. This means that an applicant who is based in Santo, for example, can complete his oath in the court in Luganville. However, applicants who live in a foreign country must travel to Vanuatu to complete their oath.

Upon completion of your oath, you are finally required to pay your citizenship fee to enable the printing of your Vanuatu Citizenship Certificate.
