Original source audit · 13 October 2026
The main comparison contains current citizenship programmes. Noncitizen documents and archived passport schemes are kept here as document research, with verified destination restrictions and no implied citizenship offer.
UK entry on a non-UK non-national document requires a visa; Canada requires a visitor visa for alien-passport holders, subject to status-based exemptions. New Zealand rejects Kiribati investor and Tongan Protected Person passports. The latest European register records document-specific recognition, not a blanket visa-free score.
Jordan’s passport authority publishes a first-issuance service with a JOD 25,000 fee and 14-day service target after required approvals. This is not the overall investment approval time.
Jordan service evidence · Panama document evidence · Tuvalu restrictions
The non-national/refugee document section requires a visa for UK entry on a non-UK non-national document. Airside transit has separate nationality and exemption rules.
Alien-passport holders and stateless individuals travel with a visitor visa; Canadian status and US permanent-resident exemptions remain separate.
Current guidance explicitly rejects Kiribati investor passports and Tongan Protected Person passports for visa issuance and travel to New Zealand.
Notifications through 16 October. Panama special-passport recognition differs by state; Tuvalu investor-passport recognition is limited to exit back to Tuvalu in Germany, Austria and Romania.
Published first-issuance service: personal attendance, Interior/Cabinet/security approval; listed JOD 25,000 first-issue fee; 14-day service time; three-year initial validity.
These 19 selected document cases were checked against official eligibility and destination sources. The public catalogue contains those supported findings.
Part I: notifications through 2 October 2026. Part II: notifications through 14 May 2025. A registry listing establishes a document category, not an investor entitlement or a visa exemption. No match does not mean no programme exists.
