Abstract

Some countries develop special programs known as citizenship by investment or residency by investment programs. Thus, residency is often the first step that paves the way for the acquisition of citizenship in these countries by granting citizenship to foreigners who wish to invest certain amounts in the development of their economy or donate to the national treasury or provide other services that the state deems appropriate to achieve its overall objectives, and this is one of the manifestations of the exclusive powers of the state in matters of citizenship through the use of its discretionary power in choosing the appropriate links to grant residency or citizenship and the resulting positive effects for both parties. It should be noted that the conferral of nationality under this method is carried out under simple conditions that abbreviate the usual procedures for acquiring nationality under the traditional concept of naturalization and, accordingly, highlights the economic role in the organization of the conferral of nationality by investment
