Saint Lucia passport for opening business projects
The Saint Lucia Passport is the best citizenship program in the world, and its benefits are particularly limited to businessmen and company owners.
They say that considering a second citizenship is the smartest move for businessmen who can afford it. This statement does not come out of nowhere. Let’s dive into what you can get if you get a Saint Lucia passport.
Saint Lucia, a beautiful Caribbean country located near North America, established a citizenship program in 2015, through which second citizenship is granted after contributing or investing in real estate.
Saint Lucia Passport Program
If you are a businessman trying hard to make your way into global trade, your country’s weak passport may prevent you for reasons that may relate to your country’s internal security or foreign policy. When you obtain a Saint Lucia passport, you will be in a much better position than having a weak passport.
A Saint Lucia passport helps you enter most countries with commercial and economic systems, including Hong Kong, Singapore, Britain, Canada, Qatar, and all Schengen countries, and you can enter all of the mentioned countries without a visa.
Even for the rest of the countries that we did not mention, such as America, Australia, and New Zealand, with a Saint Lucia passport, you can easily obtain tourist and commercial visas for these countries due to the existence of relations between them.
There are many traditional immigration programs for investors, but most of them do not offer an immediate passport while investing in them, unlike Saint Lucia, which grants its passport within 6 months and with fewer investments than those required in similar citizenship programs.
Although Saint Lucia is considered one of the programs that requires lower investment amounts, at the same time it has a strong program and strong precautionary measures.
Saint Lucia passport for business
▶ Saint Lucia grants the right to travel to more than 150 countries without a visa, and these countries further assist in trade.
▶ Among the countries that you can enter without a visa are Britain, Canada, Brazil, Russia, Hong Kong, Qatar, Singapore, and all Schengen countries without a visa, in addition to easy access to America and Australia.
▶ Permanent residency in other Caribbean countries and the possibility of retaining your citizenship and other place of residence also provide additional options for businessmen.
▶ Entering countries without a visa does not quench the thirst of businessmen. Therefore, please note that the countries you enter without a visa grant you the right to reside for a period of 6 continuous months upon each visit to Britain, Canada, and the Schengen countries, and your arrival to America with a 10-year visa. These longer stays help discuss, establish and then develop the work comfortably.
