Privacy policy

More than a passport

Citizenship by descent unlocks opportunities that last generations.

Live & work abroad

Move to your ancestral country, or anywhere it opens doors, without visas or work permits.

Education at local rates

Access university tuition and scholarships reserved for citizens, not international students.

The window is narrowing

Countries are tightening eligibility rules. If you qualify today, documenting it now protects your claim and may preserve it for your children.

A door that stays open

A second passport means more visa-free travel, healthcare access, and options for retirement, or whatever comes next.

You don't need a $10,000 consultant.

Citizenship consultants charge anywhere from $5,000 to $15,000 to manage your citizenship by descent application. However, the documents are public records: birth certificates, marriage records, naturalization files. Anyone can request them. The process is long, but it's not a mystery.

The Next Passport gives you the same roadmap a consultant would hand you, personalized to your exact lineage. So you can do it yourself, at your own pace, without the bill.
