The Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment is a leading option in the investment immigration sector, offering unparalleled opportunities.
The reforms to the Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment Program align with its agenda to build a resilient economy and maintain the credibility of its program, providing a secure and prestigious path to second citizenship.
Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment only accepts applications through authorized agents. Discover the role of these agents in this article and read the latest decisions issued by the Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment Unit.
Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment Program is the first and most popular program established in the world, providing investors with a second passport after investing or donating to St. Kitts and Nevis.
An authorized agent is a professional body or entity whose license is renewed annually, such as a lawyer or agency based in Saint Kitts and Nevis, and authorized by the Saint Kitts and Nevis Board of Governors to assist applicants for Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment.
It is important to note that there is a difference between authorized agents and marketing agents. Authorized agents are the communication channel between investors and the Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment Unit, while marketing agents are typically affiliated with program agents and do not have a direct connection to the program unit.
Agents’ responsibilities in the Saint Kitts Program:
~ GCC
✓ First, they understand applicants’ needs, then provide them with the necessary advice.
✓ Prepare and submit the required forms and documents.
✓ The agency is the primary communication channel between the client and the Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship Unit when contacting them is needed (such as requesting supporting documents or obtaining information about the outcome of the application).
✓ Manage the financial aspect of the process.
From time to time, the Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment Unit adds new companies and agents to its blacklist. You can view these agencies on official government websites.
The government grants a probationary period to new agencies to represent applicants. During this period, the agent’s skills and performance are monitored to ensure compliance with all regulations established by the Unit. Otherwise, their license will be revoked if they fail to meet these standards or engage in inappropriate behavior during the probationary period.
The Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment Program maintains the integrity of its program by periodically auditing its operations to detect illegal practices, deductions, and unauthorized financial schemes.
In an official circular dated March 19, 2025, Mr. Calvin St. Just, Head of the Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment Unit, confirmed that any of the above practices, in which an agent, developer, or marketer is found to be involved, will result in the revocation of their accreditation, blacklisting, and possible revocation of the applicants’ citizenship.
Since its transformation into a law firm, the Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment Program has intensified its efforts to implement reforms in line, first, with the 2023 Roundtable Discussions with the United States and, second, with the Memorandum of Understanding signed with other Caribbean citizenship-granting countries in March 2024.
In November 2024, Dr. Terrance Drew, Prime Minister of St. Kitts, made statements affirming the government’s stance against practices that lead to the sale of citizenship below its true value, adding that it is the only Caribbean country that criminalizes investing less than the minimum required for Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment.
The Saint Kitts and Nevis Citizenship via Investment Unit recognizes that another illegal practice is investors’ ignorance of the status of their applications and how they are being followed. Therefore, the Citizenship Unit seeks to protect investors by establishing a clear mechanism to address any violations.
