Vanuatu DSP - Undercharging of Government Mandated Minimum Selling Price
Message from the Vanuatu Citizenship Commission
“To avoid misleading marketing, ALL designated agents and their representatives are required to clearly market the Citizenship Program (whether DSP or VCP) in accordance with the Regulation Orders 33 & 34, at the Minimum Selling (Retail) Price or higher.
No exceptions to Prescribed Fees are permitted.
Designated Agents or their representatives found to be selling at under the Government Minimum Selling Price are liable to have their licenses cancelled. Applicants for Citizenship under both DSP and VCP who obtain Citizenship at under the Prescribed Fees are at risk of having their Citizenship Revoked or, being asked to resubmit their application with correct fees paid”.
