The Turks and Caicos Islands is a British Overseas Territory at the southeastern end of the Bahamas chain, with a population of about 44,000 and Grace Bay Beach on Providenciales — consistently ranked the number-one beach in the world — as its calling card. There is no income tax, no capital gains tax, no inheritance tax, and the U.S. dollar is the currency. There is no citizenship-by-investment program, but long-term residents can qualify for Permanent Residency through a qualifying property investment, and extended residency opens a pathway to British Overseas Territories Citizenship and, ultimately, full British citizenship. The UK fully permits dual citizenship, so the existing nationality is preserved throughout the process. Timelines and thresholds for permanent residency and citizenship should be confirmed with a TCI immigration attorney, as requirements have evolved in recent years.
