I invested in the Venuatu passport due to the island's lack of an extradition treaty with Western countries.

I'm pretty sure Vanuatu goverment will revoke your citizenship in case of serious criminal charges from your home country (murder, drugs, extortion, serious fraud, etc). The decision will be motivated by national security risk or something like that. Then you will be milked by local lawyers to fight against it in order not to be deported to your home country. It it very likely when all your money is gone on lawyers you will loose the battle in court and will be deported to serve a sentense.

Vanuatu has extradition treaties with several western countries, as a member of the Commonwealth.

CBI passports have been revoked for involvement in crimes, especially ones that took place prior to the passport application and weren't stated in the application. Vanuatu has revoked citizenships of Chinese nationals and extradited them to China.

If it's high enough profile, any of these CBI nations will cave.

This is the probably the answer to your question.

Vanuatu is on the cusp of losing visa free access to EU/Schengen, so that's something to take into consideration.

No real advantage over more popular, similar programs like Antigua, Dominica, Grenada, St Lucia, or St Kitts; or Malta.

Vanuatu passports are considered high risk by most financial institutions. While that's true for all citizenship by investment passports, Vanuatu itself suffers from a bad reputation due to being among the slowest to implement modern AML laws.

One thing to consider... all Caribbean passports go through US checks since this year, so if the idea is to have a passport as a emergency in respect of the country becoming authoritarian etc, the US gets the info and then 'can' passes on to other countries.

What do you mean by "passports going through US checks"?
