國家介紹

位於太平洋的美拉尼西亞島群,於1980年脫離英、法獨立建國,由80多個島嶼組成,其中68個有人居住。當地文化和森林息息相關,其特殊風俗的成年禮「陸上高空彈跳」被認為是現今高空彈跳的起源。因為是大英國協成員,護照可自由進出歐盟、英國等地,也較容易申請其它大英國協會員國的公民身分,吸引大量外國人投資移民。據統計,2020年上半年的「販售護照」收入就高達18億台幣,萬那杜政府也得以償還積欠中國的建設貸款。

Year Founded: 1980

A part of the Melanesian Islands, Vanuatu became independent from the UK and France in 1980. The country consists of more than 80 islands and 68 of which are inhabited. The root of its culture is inseparable from the forest. Vanuatu’s unique rite of passage –”land diving”– is said to be the origin of bungee jumping. A member of the British Commonwealth, a Vanuatu passport gives unlimited access to places like EU countries and the UK, and lowers the bar to apply for citizenship of other British Commonwealth countries. Vanuatu has become an attractive destination for investment migration. According to statistics, “passport sales” brought Vanuatu a revenue as high as NTD1.8 billion in the first half of 2020 and this is how the state managed to repay its construction debt it owed to China.
