In 2025, El Salvador is once again at the center of global attention, not for a bold tweet, but for launching the world’s fastest Citizenship by Investment (CBI) program.
Through a groundbreaking initiative titled the Adopting El Salvador Program, the country is offering a fast-track to citizenship in under six weeks in exchange for a $1 million donation in Bitcoin or USDt.
And now, CitizenX is proud to be an official partner and licensed processor of this transformative program.
A Freedom-First Passport
At its core, El Salvador’s citizenship by investment program isn’t about maximizing profits or flooding its population with applicants. It’s about building a nation of believers, people who align with El Salvador’s vision of sovereignty, Bitcoin adoption, and individual liberty.
Following its historic move to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender and reduce capital gains taxes on Bitcoin to zero, the government is now inviting freedom-oriented individuals to become a part of its renaissance. Not by buying in. But by contributing, to a movement.
“The Freedom Passport attracts entrepreneurs and investors who believe in and want to be part of the long-term success of the nation, and are willing to put their capital where their mouth is.” – Alex Recouso, Co-founder and CEO of CitizenX
Why El Salvador’s CBI Program Stands Out
While dozens of countries offer citizenship or residency in exchange for investment, none move as fast, or as boldly, as El Salvador.
Here’s what makes the Adopting El Salvador Program different:
- Unmatched Speed: Citizenship processed and passports issued in less than 6 weeks, the fastest timeline globally.
- No Physical Presence Required: There’s no need to relocate, reside, or even visit El Salvador during the process.
- Global Collection: Passports can be picked up at eligible consulates around the world.
- Bitcoin-Native: One of the only CBI programs to accept Bitcoin or USDt for donation.
- Minimal Red Tape: No language, culture, or history tests. No interviews. Just clear documentation and secure processing.
- Family-Friendly: Spouses and children under 18 are fully covered under the same donation.
What You’ll Need to Apply
The documentation required is simple and standard, especially compared to traditional immigration pathways:
- Passport and driver’s license
- Proof of address
- Birth certificate
- Police clearance certificate
- Proof of funds and identity
- Other standard KYC documents
Why High-Net-Worth Individuals Are Paying Attention
In a world where mobility is power, El Salvador offers more than just a second passport, it offers alignment. For Bitcoin believers, decentralization advocates, and forward-looking investors, this is more than a Plan B. It’s a Plan Sovereign.
The donation-based model, $1 million, with $999,000 paid only after approval, means the risk is low, and the benefit is immediate. You’re not investing in a property or buying bonds. You’re supporting a nation that’s pioneering a self-sovereign financial future, with Tether-powered rails that streamline compliance and verification.
CitizenX’s role as an official partner ensures that this process is not only private and secure, but smooth from start to finish.
“The partnership combines El Salvador’s visionary approach to citizenship with our expertise in Bitcoin citizenship solutions.” – Alex Recouso, CEO

Final Thoughts: A Rare Window of Opportunity
Citizenship by Investment programs often come and go, or evolve into something far less attractive. El Salvador’s offer is limited, high-impact, and radically aligned with a pro-freedom agenda.
The real value isn’t just in faster processing or visa-free travel. It’s in planting your flag in a country that’s rebuilding itself on principles of sovereignty, innovation, and inclusion.
At CitizenX, we don’t just help you get a second passport. We help you become part of something bigger.
