Policy risk

Agencies often omit host-country visa pressure. We publish dated primary-source notes instead.

Price gazettes and accordion ambiguityconfirmed

Saint Lucia publishes prices on the CIP site (accordion UI). One Enterprise accordion line (Option 3 US$250,000) is structurally ambiguous — pass2port marks it verifying and does not assert it as a confirmed route floor.
