  The above procedures describe how to apply for the Antigua and Barbuda passport. They do not accurately convey how to apply for Antiguan and Barbudan citizenship, which has its own set of requirements. If you are seeking the Antigua and Barbuda passport benefits, your first step will be to apply for citizenship. Only once you have received citizenship through the Antigua and Barbuda citizenship by investment program, you can seek out your travel document.
