About St. Kitts & Nevis

Almost a quarter of this stunning twin-island nation is a designated National Park, making it a strong contender to Dominica as the Caribbean’s most natural island.
St. Kitts, or St. Christopher’s as it is otherwise known, has a vibrant nightlife as well as fantastic natural scenery – while the nearby Nevis is cherished as St. Kitts’ quieter twin.

This charming island nation’s tourist infrastructure is still underdeveloped, although direct flights to and from the UK and the US offer great connections and its world-class championship golf courses and 300-berth mega-yacht marina hold great promise.

Low unemployment and opportunities for year-round outdoor recreation contribute to St. Kitts and Nevis’ deserved popularity with investors seeking citizenship.

Program Benefits

The islands of St. Kitts & Nevis welcome newcomers with favourable Citizenship by Investment options.

As in much of the Caribbean, St. Kitts and Nevis offers beautiful beaches, and crystal-clear waters abound, but this is not the sum of its allure. The islands welcome newcomers with favourable citizenship by investment options.

Applicants can expect to obtain a passport within 4 months, and upon gaining citizenship, may visit 134 countries visa-free including Schengen states, United Kingdom, Ireland, China, Singapore, Hong Kong and most British Commonwealth member countries.

The island nation was the first to set out terms for a CBI agreement in 1984, and as such, have enjoyed over 30 years in which to optimise the programme for both investors, locals and the country as a whole.

No time-consuming interviews are necessary, and there are no strict eligibility criteria to contend with – like health checks or requirements for proof of management experience for example, requirements that exist for other CBI programs elsewhere in the world.

    Processing fees do apply; donation applications entail due diligence fees per family member (max. $7,500 each) and applications for more than one person require a higher investment of at least $200,000.

    If taking the real estate route, you can expect to pay up to $10,047 for each family member regardless of age (spouses are charged at $20,047), plus due diligence fees of up to $7,500 per family member.

“The concept of Citizenship by Investment was something completely new for me. I did not want to mess this important decision up so I did research and eventually chose Alpha Citizen as an advisory company to help me process my application. I am so happy that I did! ”

“With every trip to US or EU my family and I have been struggeling a lot when it comes to visas. Our nationality was an issue that makes it hard to travel abroad. Acquiring a second citizenship of Grenada was a life-changing moment in our lives. ”

Adnan F.

Syria

A

“As a Syrian citizen I had real issues with business travel. I had to apply for different visas weeks ahead and sometimes I even had to cancel my meetings. I was once invited to a conference as a speaker but I wasn’t granted visas. That was a moment when I seriously started to consider a second citizenship. Robert from Alpha Citizen helped me to navigate between the different programs and I eventually end up being a citizen of Saint Lucia. It had a major impact on my life! ”
