1. Can foreigners buy property in Vanuatu?Yes. There are no restrictions on foreigners buying property. A non citizen maybe required to provide a ‘financial reference’ and a ‘professional reference’from a local firm, for urban purchases but that is the only distinction madebetween citizen and non citizen buyers. You do not need a Vanuatu InvestmentPromotion Authority (VIPA) Investor’s Certificate or a business license to buyproperty in Vanuatu. If your purchase also requires a business license (for example,when you buy an existing business) then you would need a VIPA approval and abusiness license in your name, or in a local company name.
