-- The Firm Disrupting the $25 Billion Citizenship-by-Investment Industry
In a sector historically bogged down by bureaucracy, vague pricing, and paper-heavy processes, one firm is rebuilding everything fast, clean, and with precision. Free From Borders, a tech-first citizenship advisory founded by British and American entrepreneurs, is redefining the global citizenship-by-investment (CBI) model by delivering what legacy firms can’t: instant execution, absolute transparency, and concierge-level service at scale.
Headquartered in Dubai with offices in Singapore and, most recently, New York, Free From Borders isn’t digitizing the old system. It’s replacing it entirely. While traditional firms lean on PDF downloads, back-and-forth emails, and costly retainers, this new platform gives clients legally accurate quotes in under a minute, 24/7 multilingual WhatsApp support, real-time application tracking, and access to more than 15 citizenship and residency programs all at flat fees disclosed upfront.
Built by Entrepreneurs for a Digital-First Future
The co-founders built Free From Borders to solve the exact pain points they encountered working across international structuring and wealth advisory. After witnessing the slow, outdated workflows that defined the CBI industry they brought a fintech background and operational discipline to build a platform that could run fast, discreet, and responsive.
Together, they’ve created a firm that prioritizes speed and integrity over status quo bloat. Every client receives a dedicated advisor, yet the backend is powered by automation. From qualification to due diligence and form generation, nearly every administrative task is systemized, cutting timelines from months to weeks.
A Client-Centric Approach with Transparency at Its Core
“Our clients are decision-makers,” says O’Brien. “They don’t want PDFs and promises. They want facts, timelines, and guaranteed next steps delivered fast, and handled right.”
That formula is clearly working. The company now serves a global client base, including referrals from over 85 private banks, law firms, and family offices. In Q2 of 2025 alone, U.S. inquiries surged 38%, driven by tax restructuring, political uncertainty, and a wider realization that global optionality is no longer a luxury, it’s insurance.
Free From Borders has positioned itself at the center of this shift. The firm's newly launched New York office now services a growing U.S. client base seeking second citizenship or residency as part of long-term asset protection, estate planning, and mobility strategy. These include entrepreneurs, fund managers, and executives across New York, California, and Florida clients who aren’t looking to escape the U.S., but rather future-proof their lives against volatility.
Understanding What Drives U.S. Clients
According to internal data, the top drivers among American clients are global taxation, family safety, educational access, and visa-free travel. Whether it’s a St. Kitts passport for expanded travel freedom or a residency in Portugal for lifestyle relocation, each solution is structured with purpose and with full transparency.
Clients receive real-time cost quotes, step-by-step application plans, and program comparisons tailored to their exact family composition and nationality. There are no vague ranges, hidden costs, or retainers. Everything is disclosed and delivered upfront.
Revolutionizing Client Support with Tech-Driven Service
Beyond automation, the firm’s customer experience model is what truly sets it apart. Unlike legacy operators that rely on layers of admin staff, Free From Borders provides 24/7 support via WhatsApp, across seven languages, with guaranteed human response times under five minutes. Whether a client needs a brochure, a legal explanation, or a document checklist, the answer is instant regardless of timezone.
And while the firm moves fast, it’s not reckless. Free From Borders has maintained a 100% approval rate across all citizenship and residency applications by vetting every client thoroughly. The company only takes on cases it knows it can deliver and backs them with in-house legal review and compliance.
Partnering with Wealth Managers for Global Reach
Its transparency-first model also extends to partners. The firm recently launched a referral portal that allows wealth managers, tax attorneys, and family offices to track client status in real-time and receive up to $5,000 per successful referral all without ever sending an email. The system has already gained traction across Africa, the Gulf, and now the U.S.
This focus on infrastructure, not just branding, is what's turning heads across the industry. While other firms rush to plug in CRMs or outsource case handling, Free From Borders is quietly building proprietary logic for AI-driven qualification, instant quote calculators, and compliance workflows that automatically pre-fill and route forms. It’s not a consultancy with tech, it’s a tech company that happens to specialize in citizenship.
Expanding Global Mobility Programs and Services
Programs include citizenship in the Caribbean like Grenada, St. Lucia, and Dominica as well as EU residency routes in Portugal, Greece, Italy, and Malta. Clients can compare each option in seconds, then proceed knowing exactly what’s required, how long it takes, and what it costs.
As demand climbs, the firm is scaling strategically. With New York now active, Free From Borders plans to expand into California and Florida within the next 12 months, with local advisors offering face-to-face service backed by the platform’s global engine.
Future-Proofing Clients in an Unstable World
In a world increasingly shaped by instability, citizenship planning has gone from elite fringe to mainstream necessity. What once was considered a luxury is now being recommended by private banks and wealth advisors as a core part of any high-net-worth strategy. But for clients used to speed and control, the process needs to match the profile.
As Jake puts it: “Second citizenship isn’t about paperwork, it's about control. And we’re giving our clients control over their future, without delays, without noise, and without compromise.”
With offices in New York, Singapore, and Dubai, Free From Borders is redefining the standard for global mobility combining precision, discretion, and speed. For those considering their next move, the firm’s message is clear:
When you're ready to act, they're already built to deliver.
