The global epidemic has led to the closure of borders, and thus travel abroad has become very complex. But not for everyone. Since the beginning of the closure of the new Corona virus in many countries of the world, many millionaires have purchased new passports to escape the strict closures, in their countries, and to travel to regions less affected by the coronavirus. This is according to the newspaper "Le Monde".

Thus, some wealthy people have decided to "buy" the citizenship of isolated small states, such as the Vanuatu Islands, the island of Saint Lucia, in the Pacific, or even Cyprus, which are relatively less affected by the epidemic, to escape restrictions and experience the epidemic in a less stressful context.

On the other hand, other wealthy people, residing in poor countries, found themselves in trouble due to the closure of the borders, after they used to seek treatment abroad, which led them to apply for a passport, in western countries, in order to ensure adequate quality of health care, in Illness condition.

Whatever the reasons for purchasing a passport or residence permit, millionaires can contact the specialized agencies that provide services. Vanuatu's passport, for example, is available at 130,000 euros, which will be delivered by postal services, in just one month.

After the tax havens, it seems that the countries that have not been hit hard by "Coffed 19" are the new destination for the wealthy. The passport market is witnessing an additional 42% demand, compared to previous years.
