The Saint Lucia Citizenship by Investment Programme allows individuals to obtain citizenship of Saint Lucia by making investments in the country. Specifically, the investment can be either a real estate purchase, a donation to the National Economic Fund or the purchase of National Action Bonds.
Essentially, applicants and their families are granted citizenship, allowing them to live, work, and travel freely within Saint Lucia and obtain enhanced global mobility. Notably, the Programme is the newest among Caribbean CBI and is a reliable and favourable Programme for second citizenship.
