The catch

High capital bar. You need to commit at least $2.5M to qualify.
You have to actually live there. At least 183 days a year in-country — this becomes your main home, not a paper residency.
Long road to a passport. Citizenship takes around 10 years of qualifying residence.
No dual citizenship. You may have to give up your current citizenship to naturalise.
