frequently asked questions

What is the St. Kitts and Nevis Citizenship by Investment Program?

The St. Kitts and Nevis Citizenship by Investment Program is the world’s longest-established citizenship by investment initiative, launched in 1984. This program allows individuals to obtain full citizenship through a financial investment in the country, providing a St. Kitts passport and access to numerous benefits such as global mobility, family security, and financial advantages.

Investors can choose from three main pathways: the Sustainable Island State Contribution (SISC), an Approved Public Benefit Project, or real estate acquisition. Each option requires a minimum investment, with the SISC starting at $250,000 and real estate investments beginning at $325,000.

The cost of obtaining St. Kitts citizenship depends on the chosen investment option. The Sustainable Island State Contribution requires a minimum of $250,000, while real estate investments start at $325,000 for approved developments or $600,000 for private dwellings. Additional fees apply for due diligence and dependents.

 

Real estate investments can be sold after a mandatory holding period of seven years. If the property is sold to another CBI investor, it remains eligible as a qualifying investment, providing potential returns without losing citizenship.

St. Kitts and Nevis combines natural beauty with a stable political environment, excellent air links to Europe and North America, and a high quality of life. These factors make it an ideal choice for a second home or investment property in the Caribbean.
