Hello OCCRP Reader,

For as low as $100,000, the tiny Caribbean nation of Dominica has sold passports to people from around the world, granting them easy access to more than 130 countries.

But who exactly has taken advantage?

Government gazettes and leaked records, collected and painstakingly analyzed by the Government Accountability Project and OCCRP, reveal for the first time a much wider picture of just who has obtained Dominica citizenship over the years.

Among the roughly 7,700 newly-minted Dominicans were oligarchs, political elites, and a top Afghan official accused of human rights abuses. Not to mention Saddam Hussein’s top nuclear scientist.

Today, OCCRP and 16 media partners have published our findings 👇
