Americans have many individual reasons for obtaining a British passport. In all, however, the political situation in the United States and the tax changes play a role.
In 2024, the number of United States citizens who submitted applications for the Citizenship of Great Britain increased. The main cause of growth is Donald Trump’s return to power and changes in Great Britain’s tax law. On Tuesday, March 4, writes financial times.
In 2024, applications for the Citizenship of Great Britain submitted 251,000 citizens of other states, among them 6100 – Americans.
“This is the largest indicator of requests received from states over the past 20 years. In addition, it has been 26% more than 2023. Especially a sharp increase occurred in the last quarter of 2024 – the frequency of filing applications increased by 40% compared to the same period in 2023,” the publication said.
Immigration attorneys believe that among the main causes of the transition is American’s desire to receive an alternative passport against the rear of politics in the United States.
“In addition, British authorities have eliminated the status of the non -abuse. It forces many wealthy Americans to seek citizenship to maintain the opportunity to stay in the country or return to the future,” the publication explained.
Journalists emphasize that interest in American Britain citizenship is higher than under Trump’s previous administration.
In the past, Trump said the United States would start selling “golden” species for permanent residence for $ 5 million. Per dollar.
